NAME
       pdbdump - Print the contents of a Palm PDB file

SYNOPSIS
       "pdbdump" [options] filename

DESCRIPTION
       "pdbdump" reads a PalmOS .pdb file, parses it, and prints its contents. This includes both a hex dump of the raw data of each piece, and a
       human-readable list of the various values, insofar as possible.	The aim of "pdbdump" is to allow one to verify whether a particular file
       is a well-formed PalmOS database file and if not, where the error lies.

       If the database is of a known type, "pdbdump" parses the AppInfo block and records. Otherwise, it simply prints out a hex dump of their
       contents. "pdbdump" includes, by default, support for most of the built-in applications. Other helper modules may be loaded with the "-M"
       option.

OPTIONS
       -h -help --help
	   Print a usage message and exit.

       -nohex
	   Don't print the hex dump of the various parts.

       -Mmodule
	   "use" the named module. This can be useful for loading additional helper modules.

BUGS
       "pdbdump" only recognizes record databases (".pdb" files), not resource databases (".prc" files).
