       type of capability, as well as handle multiple 'Schlep' files.

   Conduit Options
       -p, --port

       Use device file port to communicate with the Palm handheld. If this is not specified, pilot-schlep will look for the $PILOTPORT environment
       variable. If neither are found or supplied,  pilot-schlep  will print the usage information.  -q, --quiet

       Suppress 'Hit HotSync button' message -v, --version

       To unpack a file that has been stored on your Palm with pilot-schlep:

       pilot-schlep -p /dev/pilot -f RetrieveThis.pdfc

       Please notice that you must use redirection to Install or Fetch files using pilot-schlep.

       Currently the stored name and file type is not queried so you can potentially Install a PDF file, and retrieve it as a ZIP file.
