Synchronization script for the reMarkable e-reader. The idea is to have a "Library" folder on your PC which is synchronized with the reMarkable. When new files appear in this local directory this script will push them over to the rM. When files are edited, created or annotated on the rM they get converted to .pdf (from .rm) and copied back to the Library folder (with the suffix "_annot"). Notes are also converted to PDF and saved to a Notes directory (and not reuploaded).
The file structure might look like this:
|--Literature
|--Papers
|--Books
|--Notes
Adjust the paths at the top of the script!

python3 sync.py -bcu #backup, convert and upload: full sync
