for the really lazy like myself, hoping that debian-pilot will be a 
little more organized once I get some Debian 2.0 CDs, I got 
pilot-link 0.8.9 compiled on debian 1.3.1r6 without too much trouble.
This has a pilot-xfer program which supports backup/restore, then I 
added this -

    {{{*.prc} {*.PRC} {*.pdb} {*.PDB}} {
    	{{pilot-xfer} {dsk_exec r-pilot-install %s}}
    }}

- to tkdesk's TkDesk/Configuration/Popups menu entry (file) with 
this script on my path :

jam:~> cat /usr/local/bin/r-pilot-install
#!/usr/bin/tcsh
setenv PILOTRATE 57600
pilot-xfer /dev/cua0 -i $1
jam:~>

Nothing very complex, but I wanted some sort of GUI thing to talk 
with the pilot on my desktop (!!) and be able to install the pilot
software I had collected in the weeks before my pilot arrived.

Works great, though .pdb also refers to `Brookhaven protein structure
database' for some of us.....
