NAME
       addresses  - Dumps the Palm Address Book entries to STDOUT in a simple
       format.



SYNOPSIS
       Redirect to a specified output file:

       addresses [-p ] > MyAddresses.txt
	 (Note the redirect) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

	      This will dump the Address Book from your Palm  into  the	 file
	      MyAddresses.txt in the format that looks similar to the follow-
	      ing format:

	      Category: Personal Businesses
	      Last name: Doe
	      First name: Jane
	      Company: Acme, Inc.
	      Work: +1 (800) GO-ACME
	      Home: jdoe@acme.org
	      Address: 123 Main Street
	      City: Anywhere
	      State: CA
	      Zip Code: 01234-5678
	      Country: USA
	      Title: Chief Annoyance Officer


       Output to STDOUT (the screen)

       addresses [-p ]

	      This will dump the same information (shown above, in  the	 same
	      format  as  above)  to  the  screen  or  wherever	 you may have
	      directed STDOUT to on your system.

DESCRIPTION
       addresses will connect to your Palm  handheld  and  dump	 all  entries
       found  in  the  AddressDB.pdb (Address Book) file to STDOUT (generally
       the screen) or, if redirected with the '>'  (greater-than)  character,
       it  will	 redirect to a file of your choosing (called "MyAddresses.txt
       in the above example, but may be called any other filename you  wish).



OPTIONS
       There  is only one option (and it is, well, optional), and that is the
       '>' redirection character to send the output to a  file	(or  process)
       instead of STDOUT (generally "The Screen[tm]")



USAGE
       The program will read Address data from the Palm handheld and output a
       format suitable for the other programs to import as required. You  may
       redirect the output to a file or process, at your choosing.

       addresses  [-p  ]	>  MyAddresses.txt   # redirect to a file (or
       process/pipe)
       addresses [-p ]			 # print to STDOUT/the screen
