pilot-link-0.9.5-pre6 patches
Hi! Currently 'read-expenses' application included with pilot-link package is not very useful, since it produces unstructured output, which is difficult to parse and process. For personal needs, I've done small hack: I've modified 'read-expenses' to produce XML output. Then I wrote small XSLT transformation to convert this XML file into HTML page, which could be printed and attached to your expense report. To run XSLT transformation, you need command 'xsltproc' which is part of 'libxslt' package, which could be downloaded from http://xmlsoft.org/ My code could be freely distributed under GPL. I hope you find it usefule and it perhaps be included into pilot-link contrib. The file is attached.

pilot-link-0.9.5-pre6 patches
Hi,
in file dlp.c in line 239 the following was inserted:
/* Seems like year comes back as all zeros if the date is empty
* (but other fields can vary). And mktime() chokes on 1900 B.C.
* (result of 0 minus 1900), returning -1, which the higher level
* code can't deal with (passes it straight on to utime(), which
* simply leaves the file's timestamp as-is).
*
* So, since year 0 appears to mean no date, we'll return an odd
* number that works out to precisely one day before the start of
* the Palm's clock (thus little chance of being run into by any
* Palm-based time stamp).
*/
if (data[0] == 0 data[1] == 0)
return (time_t) 0x83D8FE00; /* Dec 31, 1903 00:00:00 GMT */
While the year 1903 is surely a cool idea using a negative value causes some
unnecessary problems - at least for the MS VC++ 6.0 c-runtime. For example the
function gmtime() begins like this:
struct tm * __cdecl gmtime (const time_t *timp)
{
long caltim = *timp;/* calendar time to convert */
[...]
if ( caltim 0L )
return(NULL);
After all this leads to the effect that the change in dlp.c simply doesn't work.
Therefore I'd vote to rather returning 0 meaning Jan 1, 1970 00:00:00 GMT.

Can you resend this in a unified diff, assuming your OS
can create
a sane diff? Manual diffing is a pain sometimes.
A 'unified' diff ??? ... and I was already proud to get produced what I sent before
... obviously I didn't manage not outing myself as a non-unix guy ...
diff -urBb should do that.
That helps :-)
