=head1 NAME
copy-appinfo - ColdSync conduit to copy the AppInfo block (categories)
=head1 SYNOPSIS
Add the following to your F<.coldsyncrc> file:
conduit sync {
type: addr/DATA;
type: memo/DATA;
type: todo/DATA;
...
path: <...>/copy-appinfo;
}
conduit sync {
type: addr/DATA;
type: memo/DATA;
type: todo/DATA;
...
path: [generic];
}
(the "[generic]" block is so that the databases in question will be synced
the normal way, in addition to having their AppInfo blocks copied.)
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The C<copy-appinfo> conduit copies the AppInfo block (which contains
information about categories and certain other application-specific data)
from the Palm to the desktop.
Since ColdSync's generic conduit does not touch the AppInfo block at all,
you need to use C<copy-appinfo> or something like it to keep category data
in sync.
Note that this conduit only implements Palm-overwrites-desktop. If you
modify any categories in the desktop copy of a database, those changes will
be lost.
=head1 BUGS
None known.
