Palm-PDB version 1.015, released August 9, 2014 This distribution contains Palm::PDB and Palm::Raw, a pair of Perl 5 modules for reading, manipulating, and writing the .pdb and .prc database files used by PalmOS devices such as the PalmPilot and its successors. These 2 modules were historically part of the p5-Palm distribution, which is now just called Palm. They have been split off into their own distribution because they are also useful for manipulating the Mobipocket e-book format, which is also used for Amazon Kindle books. INSTALLATION To install this module, run the following commands: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install CHANGES Here's what's new in version 1.015 of Palm-PDB: (See the file "Changes" for the full revision history.) - Minor documentation improvements CONTRIBUTING The source is in GitHub: https://github.com/madsen/Palm-PDB If you have a change, fork the repo, make your patch, and send me a pull request.
