I downloaded the package and I see a lot of code.  There is no 
documentation describing the file formats.  Are we supposed to 
ascertain the formats by following the code?  (Not that I'm 
complaining; I'm prepared to hear a "yes" answer.)

I'm interested in writing a program that takes the file outputs from 
the PC-based pilot sync program (that comes with the pilot) and 
converts the files into files useful for Unix systems.  I would write 
and run this program on unix.  What's the best place to start to find 
the file formats?  My immediate interest is with the datebook.dat 
file.
