okay so bestie, welcome to pilot-foto-treo600(1) πŸŽ€ this is a pilot-link: Userland conduits situation and honestly it's giving "camera roll rescue mission" ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

pilot-foto-treo600 β€” copies Treo "foto" databases to the current directory and pulls the image files out from inside them πŸ–ΌοΈπŸ’–


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

 pilot-foto-treo600 [-p|--port <port>] [--version] [-?|--help]
[-q|--quiet] [--usage] [-w|--write]

like, that's the whole shape of it, no cap ✨


πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

So what it does: it copies the Treo "foto" databases into your current directory, and then extracts the .jpg image files that are lurking inside them πŸ“ΈπŸ’… literally a little photo heist, but legal, and the photos are yours.


✨ OPTIONS ✨

🫢 pilot-foto-treo600 options

  • -w, --write β€” actually writes the database data to disk πŸ’Ύ (yes, this is the one you probably want, iykyk)

πŸ”Œ Conduit Options

  • -p, --port port β€” use the device file port to talk to your Palm handheld πŸ“Ÿ. If you don't specify it, it'll go looking for the $PILOTPORT environment variable. And if neither of those turn up or get supplied? It just prints the usage info at you 😭 (rough, but fair)
  • -q, --quiet β€” suppresses the 'Hit HotSync button' message 🀫 so it stops nagging you to press the thing
  • -v, --version β€” shows the version of pilot-foto-treo600 and exits without connecting πŸ‘‹ (no Palm required, we're just vibing)

πŸ’– Help Options

  • -h, --help β€” shows the help synopsis for pilot-foto-treo600 and exits without connecting 🧚
  • --usage β€” shows a brief usage message and exits without connecting ⭐

🌈 EXAMPLE 🌈

so the comment in the original says it best β€” connect to the Palm device, grab all the photos found in the Treo "foto" database, convert them to .jpg files, and write them to disk on your local machine in the current working directory 🎊

# connect to the Palm device and fetch all photos found in the Treo
# "foto" database, convert them to .jpg files and write them to disk on
# your local machine in the current working directory.

okay this part is serious for a sec: there's an online bug tracker, and using it is the only way to make sure your bugs actually get recorded and tracked until they're resolved or closed. Reporting bugs via email? easy, sure, but not very useful in terms of accountability 😬 so please point your browser at http://bugs.pilot-link.org: http://bugs.pilot-link.org and drop your bugs and issues there πŸ™
