XDDUMP(1)		    General Commands Manual		     XDDUMP(1)

NAME
       xddump -	dump an	XDiary calendar	to file

SYNOPSIS
       xddump [-usage] [xdiaryOption ...]

DESCRIPTION
       xddump  reads a calendar	and saves the entries in a file	or the entries
       are displayed on	the screen. xddump can be used to make a backup	 of  a
       calendar	or to display the calendar on a	character terminal.

       xddump produces a tagged	file where each	entry is split into components
       (such  as  alarm	 offsets, flags, entry text etc.) which	are identified
       with a tag. The tagged file can then be used by other  utilities.   One
       utility	that  uses  the	 output	 file  from  xddump is xdrestore which
       restores	a calendar from	a tagged file.

       xddump can be run in either display mode	or  backup  mode.  In  display
       mode,  the  contents  of	a calendar is displayed	on the screen while in
       backup mode, a tagged file is written.

       In display mode,	xddump provides	 a  'hook'  for	 your  own  customized
       output.	The  tagged  file produced by xddump is	passed to a program or
       shell script you	provide. This allows you to customize the output  from
       xddump.

OPTIONS
       xddump  supports	 several options which are described in	the XDiary on-
       line help.

FILES
       $HOME/Diary
       $HOME/XDiary.backup

SEE ALSO
       The built in help in XDiary.
