DESCRIPTION
        pilot-install-todo allows the user to install one new ToDo list entry

OPTIONS
   pilot-install-todo options
                               -P,
                               --priority priority

       Specify the priority of the ToDo entry - 1|2|3|4|5 (defaults to a
       priority of 1).

        NOTE: this value has changed from the default of 4 to the default of
       1, just as a new ToDo entry on the Palm would set it.

                               -d,
                               --due duedate

       The due Date MM/DD/YYYY (defaults to blank, no due date if this is not
       specified).

                               -c, --completed

       Mark the item complete (the default is to mark the item as incomplete,
       as the Palm would do it).

                               -D,
                               --description title

       The title of the ToDo entry

                               -n, --note
                               note

       The Note text you wish to add to this ToDo entry, if any.

                               -f,
                               --file filename

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

                               -q,

                               --usage

       Display a brief usage message and exit without connecting.

USAGE

       ToDo entry to the Palm ToDo application, using the specified parameters
       and input from the supplied file passed as arguments on the
       commandline.
