	From coldsync(8):

     ColdSync does not deal with categories. This is due to the way the
     AppInfo block (which contains the categories) is implemented. However,
     conduits can deal with categories.

The ColdSync distribution comes with the 'copy-appinfo' conduit, which
copies the AppInfo block from the Palm to the PDB file on the desktop.
You can use this as a starting point to write a conduit that copies
the AppInfo block from the PDB file to the Palm.
