## SECTION

## SYNOPSIS

           read-notepad [-p|--port <port>]  [--version]  [-q|--quiet]
           [-?|--help] [--usage] [-l|--list] [-t|--type type]

## DESCRIPTION

           Connect  to the Palm handheld and list the record informa-
           tion found in the Palm Notepad application (found  on  OS4
           and newer devices).  Alternately, if no options are given,
           each record's image will  be  converted  to  files,  using
           Portable  Network Graphic (.png) or Portable Pixmap (.ppm)
           format. The default type is ppm.

           read-notepad allows a user running PalmOS 4.0 or later  to
           read  the  data stored in the Palm Notepad application and
           extract the data into images and convert them to  Portable
           Network Graphics (.png) or Portable Pixmap (.ppm) files.
