Palm - Palm OS utility functions
my @parts = localtime( palm2epoch($palmtime) );
Converts a PalmOS timestamp to a Unix Epoch time. Note, however, that PalmOS time is in the timezone of the Palm itself while Epoch is defined to be in the GMT timezone. Further conversion may be necessary.
my $palmtime = epoch2palm( time() );
Converts Unix epoch time to Palm OS time.
$PDB->Write( mkpdbname($PDB->{name}) );
Convert a PalmOS database name to a 7-bit ASCII representation. Native Palm database names can be found in ISO-8859-1 encoding. This encoding isn't going to generate the most portable of filenames and, in particular, ColdSync databases use this representation.
