Bug#324744: memos.1.gz: --file compact and clarify

2005-08-25 Thread Ludovic Rousseau
tags 324744 fixed-in-experimental upstream
thanks

Hello Dan,

pilot-link is now at version 0.12.0-pre4 but not considered stable
enough by the upstream author. This pre-version is available in
experimental and corrects the bugs you report here.

This bug will be closed when pilot-link 0.12.0 enters unstable.

Thanks,

 Package: pilot-link
 Version: 0.11.8-12
 Severity: minor
 File: /usr/share/man/man1/memos.1.gz
 
 Instead of
-f, --file [file] ..
   Use file as input file (instead of MemoDB.pdb)
 
If '-f' is specified, the specified file will  be  treated  as  a  memo
database  from  which  to  read  memos, rather than HotSyncing from the
Palm.
 
 Say
-f, --file [file]
 
The specified file on disk, or standard input if no file is
given[?], will be treated as a memo database from which to read
memos, rather than HotSyncing from MemoDB.pdb on the Palm.  No
communication will be established with the Palm.
 
 I don't know if the .. above meant more files...
 
 Anyways, the original,
-f, --file [file] ..
   Use file as input file (instead of MemoDB.pdb)
 isn't clear that one also is no longer reading from the palm.
 One must read to the bottom of the man page to find out.
 
 P.S.,
 $ apropos pilot-datebook
 pilot-datebook (1)   - read/write Palm dateboot
 DatebooT?
 
 Also try
 $ apropos palm|awk 'length111'
 to see some commands whose NAME section is overly verbose compared to most of
 $ apropos palm
 
 Also slice from wrong page:
 $ man pilot-addresses|grep expen
   install-expenses will fall back to /dev/pilot.
