Convert PDB EBOOK to JSON NATIVEAST

The PDB (Palm Database) file extension, associated with PalmDoc eBooks, is a format used for storing eBooks on Palm OS devices. Originating from AportisDoc, PalmDoc files are plain ASCII text compressed using Run-Length Encoding (RLE) to save memory space. These files are decompressed on the fly by PalmDoc readers, facilitating efficient storage and quick access. The PDB format, with its Creator ID and Type attributes, ensures compatibility across various Palm applications, making it a versatile choice for eBook distribution on Palm devices.

The JSON file extension is used for encoding the Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) of programming languages in a lightweight, text-based format. It enables efficient data interchange and enhances performance by providing a structured representation of code components. Since its standardization in the early 2000s, JSON has become indispensable in modern web development and software engineering for its simplicity, readability, and compatibility across various programming environments.
