Handmark 2.2 - Manual (Page 28)

For information about the Synchronize the files option, please see above. Desktop overwrites handheld
copies all files from your WordSmith desktop’s file list to your organizer (this action will replace the files on
your organizer with the ones from your desktop).
Handheld overwrites desktop causes all documents on your organizer to be placed in the directory you
selected for WordSmith and overrides the files that are there. Do nothing turns off synchronization of
your WordSmith files. WordSmith’s conduit should be set to “Synchronize the files” as the default setting
for standard usage.
WordSmith Command-line converter
under Windows
In addition to the conduit, advanced Windows users may use an ms-dos command-line program for
converting WordSmith documents to and from the RTF format.
Please note:
1. This program is for advanced users only and is not currently supported under Windows
2. The application currently only converts to and from RTF files. It will not convert a
source document that is not RTF. If you wish to do so, we recommend using makedoc
or a similar utility.
Usage:
WSConv [-n] [-psp] <input file> <output file> <title>:
Converts an RTF file to WordSmith's rich document Palm “PDB” format.
[-n] builds the Palm file without compression.
[-psp] preserves document stylesheet and pictures, if any, in the Palm PDB file
All fields are required except “-n” and “-psp”, which are optional.
WSConv -d <input file> <output file>
Converts WordSmith rich document PDB to RTF format. All fields are required.
