Description: converts text files into Palm zTXT databases

Long Description: makeztxt is a simple commandline program that takes a plain ASCII text file and compresses it into a zTXT database. makeztxt will remove newline characters at the end of lines that contain text so that the paragraphs flow better on the Palm screen. makeztxt supports the use of regular expressions to automatically generate a list of bookmarks for you. Lastly, makeztxt can also break an existing zTXT file into it's components (text, bookmarks, annotations) and store them into separate files for you.
