Convert PDB to 5 (Man Page)

The PDB (Palm Database) file extension for Palm Text Documents was a cornerstone for text data management in Palm OS devices. This format stored plain ASCII text in a compressed form, optimizing memory usage and ensuring efficient data handling. The compression allowed for more data storage on limited memory devices, facilitating seamless synchronization between Palm devices and computers. Palm Text Documents were essential for handling various text-centric tasks on Palm OS platforms.

The 5 file extension refers to Unix Section 5 Manual Pages, which document file formats and conventions used in Unix-like operating systems. These manual pages, accessible via the "man" utility, provide detailed information on system-level file formats, such as "deb.5" for the DEB file format. Historically, Section 5 has been a crucial resource for system administrators and developers to understand and manage various file formats and system conventions in Unix environments.
