I heard from David Williams (developer of par ... nice surprise since ver 0.5.1 is from 2001)
*some* of us oldies are still around david did some great work way back with a program called multilink :) its amazing what some aussies can do *g* an interesting read to look at davids background (www.djw.org) - he's been a busy bee :)
I just compiled txt2pdbdoc under Cygwin (no changes needed). And looking into the source its conversion just chops the input file in blocks of 4096 bytes (max 4096 bytes per record). Hence your result of 2 records.
the issue is that its creating a FileStream pdb - so you can use the API's like FileXXX to access the material. the specification specifically says that it is broken up into chunks of 4096 with a DLBK header. par is probably the best utility to play around with/construct pdb files; you can specify everything you need on a command line; and, as pointed out - its open source. if it doesn't support something you need; program it. -- // Aaron Ardiri -- For information on using the PalmSource Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
