SYNOPSIS


 read-expenses [-p|--port <port>] [-q|--quiet] [--version] [-?|--help] [--usage] [-w|--write]

DESCRIPTION


 read-expenses is used to output the Expense data in a simple text format, which can be used to import into any other application you wish, such as Excel or other application.

If you have expense entries saved on your Palm in the ExpenseDB.pdb file, you can export them to a simple text format, and redirect that to a file/pipe, or STDOUT (the default) using read-expenses.

The output data will resemble something like the following:

         Payment:   7
         Currency:  23
