Hi,
I wonder if someone can help me solve this problem with copying memo files from my Palm Pilot to my Linux 8.04 system.

I have set the MemoFile conduit action to Copy from PDA
The conduit settings are
Directory Mode 0700
Files Mode 0600
(however I cannot find any information on what these mean).

When I synchronise, all the memo files on the PDA are merged into a single file in the destination directory. This single file has the name:
.ids

I can edit the file and split it into its original Palm files.

Here is a typical file on the PDA that I am trying to copy:



13590543:0:1220601427;/home/geoff/PalmGoGames/Gamerecord/Gogame/iom2(;GM[1]FF[4]AP[PilotGOne:0.8.1b3]GN[iom]SZ[19]DT[2008-08-18]RO[2]KM[5.5];B[dp];W[qc];B[ed];W[pp];B[dj];W[fq];B[dn];W[jp];B[qn];W[pk];B[nq];W[oo];B[on];W[nn];B[om];W[mp];B[mq];W[lp];B[pq];W[qq];B[pr];W[qr];B[np];W[no];B[op];W[qo];B[or];W[lq];B[mr];W[nd];B[qi];W[rk];B[ok];W[pj];B[qf];W[oj];B[nk];W[rh];B[qh];W[ri];B[qj];W[qk];B[rj];W[re];B[rg];W[rn];B[nj];W[ni];B[mi];W[mh];B[li];W[pg];B[qe];W[rd];B[oe];W[od];B[of];W[lh];B[nh];W[oi];B[mf];W[le];B[lf];W[ki];B[me];W[ld];B[md];W[mc];B[lc];W[kc];B[kf];W[kj];B[lk])


Is there something about the format of the file that prevents gnome-pilot from separating the memo files instead of merging them?

Is there anything I should be doing to copy the files properly?

Many thanks for any information which will help me resolve this problem.
