KPilot is software for syncing the 3Com Palm Pilot and IBM Workpad (UNTESTED!) with a machine running some flavor of unix. The actual PC->PP communcations was originally based on pilot-link.0.8.7. This may or may not change as KPilot develops.

This is the second release of KPilot, The have been a few bug fixes (most notably the compile problem a lot of people were experiencing), some cosmetic changes, and signifcant rewrite and expanding of the syncing capabilities.

• Import/Export to/from virtually any text format for Addresses.
• Import/Export to/from text files for memos.
• Rewrite and expansion of danduit (KPilot's answer to conduits) interface to make it easier for others to add other danduits.
• Docs!

Version 1.0b

• Full Backup/Restore capabilities of Palm Pilot
• File (prc,pdb) installation with drag and drop support
• Email Synchronization (via POP3 and sendmail)

KPilot is written by Dan Pilone. I am a graduating senior at Virginia Tech and wrote this out of personal need, wanting to release something before graduating, and to show my support for both Linux and the KDE Project. I am very interested in feedback, both positive and negative. Suggestions are welcome. I really want to know if people are finding this software useful, or if there is that one super-duper feature you would like to see put into KPilot. You can mail me at pilone@slac.com.
