bbdb-srv

BBDB-SRV.PL(1)						      General Commands Manual						    BBDB-SRV.PL(1)

NAME

       bbdb-srv - Converts Mail-Headers to an Emacs-Lisp String.

SYNOPSIS

       echo Some Headers | bbdb-srv

DESCRIPTION

       This  script  reads  a block of message headers on stdin, and converts them to an emacs-lisp string (quoting  all dangerous characters) and
       then uses the `gnudoit' program to cause a running Emacs process to invoke the `bbdb-srv' function with that string.

       This has the effect of causing the running Emacs to display the BBDB record corresponding to these headers.

       See the Emacs side of things in bbdb-srv.el for more info.

       A trivial application of this is the shell command:

	  echo 'From: Jamie Zawinski <jwz@netscape.com>' | bbdb-srv.perl

       which will cause the corresponding record to be displayed.  A more interesting application of this is:

	  setenv NS_MSG_DISPLAY_HOOK bbdb-srv.perl

       which will hook BBDB up to Mozilla (Unix Netscape Mail and Netscape News versions 3.0b2 and later only.)
