Hi Hermann,
I am sending this answer to the mailing list because you may not be the
only one to ask these questions.

Look in the dbtools-0_3_5.zip in the metafiles subdir, there is a file
name fr.ifo. It contains some sample format commands such as date. You
can modify this file to fit your needs and then use it like this:
pdb2csv -i fr.ifo ....

the merge mode is briefly described in the command line help only (type
"csv2pdb" with no options).
When you convert from csv to pdb, instead of creating a new pdb file
from scratch, the merge mode opens the pdb file, keeps the database
structure from the pdb file and adds records to the pdb depending on the
option. "Rebuild" erases all records from the pdb and adds all records
from the csv.
