makeztxt is a simple commandline program that takes a plain ASCII text
|
||
|
file and compresses it into a zTXT Palm database. It doesn't like the DOS
|
||
|
style CR/LF line breaks, so the input file should be first run through a
|
||
|
conversion program such as dos2unix if it contains such characters.
|
||
|
makeztxt will remove newline characters at the end of lines that contain
|
||
|
text so that the paragraphs flow better on the Palm screen.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The best feature of makeztxt, however, is its ability to use regular
|
||
|
expressions to search the input text for bookmark spots. This is done
|
||
|
with the command line options -l and -r:
|
||
|
|
||
|
-l will list all the bookmarks that are generated.
|
||
|
-r takes a regex as an argument to generate one or more
|
||
|
bookmarks. You can have as many -r options as you want.
