The main window in KPilot just contains the KPilot logo. You can switch to one of the builtin applications by using the drop-down list on the toolbar.
The Main Window
The main window contains the application menu, which we will deal with here.
Brings up the configuration dialog for KPilot.
Starts a HotSync. You should press the HotSync button on your PalmPilot™'s cradle. Note: it is not possible to cancel a HotSync once the request has been made.
(not available with all installations) Starts a FastSync in the same way that a HotSync is started.
Performs a full backup of your PalmPilot™. This is like a HotSync, but can take several minutes.
This copies all the data on your PC to your PalmPilot™, replacing whatever data was there. Use this if your PalmPilot™ suffers some catastrophe (or is replaced by a new one). Doing a restore will erase all data on the PalmPilot™ before restoring the information from your PC!
Quits KPilot, closing the main window and stopping the daemon if that configuration option is enabled.
Configures the external conduits. This is explained below.
The remainder of the Conduits menu lists the builtin applications, just like the drop-down box in the toolbar does. Select one of these applications to switch to it.
