I store books in ~/Documents on my desktop system. The same directory (including all files with the same paths) is located in MicroSD card on my PocketBook device.

The following command fetch the book positions from the E-reader database and updates them in the zathura history file:

```

$ pbsync /media/jubnzv/PB740 /home/jubnzv/.local/share/zathura/history /home/jubnzv/

Updated positions:

 "/home/jubnzv/Documents/C++/Stepanov_ From Mathematics to Generic Programming.pdf" page: 103

New zathura history was saved at /home/jubnzv/.local/share/zathura/history.new

Check the difference using:

 diff /home/jubnzv/.local/share/zathura/history{,.new}

To apply these changes use:

 mv /home/jubnzv/.local/share/zathura/history{,.new}

```
