abook

ABOOK(1)						      General Commands Manual							  ABOOK(1)

NAME

       abook - text-based address book program

SYNOPSIS

       abook [ OPTION ]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly  the  abook program.  This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the
       original program does not have a manual page.

       abook is a text-based address book program. It contains Name, Email, Address and various Phone fields. It is designed for  use  with  mutt,
       but can be equally useful on its own.

OPTIONS

       -h --help
	      Show usage.

       -C --config <filename>
	      Use an alternative configuration file (default is $HOME/.abook/abookrc).

       --datafile <filename>
	      Use an alternative addressbook file (default is $HOME/.abook/addressbook).

       --mutt-query <string>
	      Make a query for mutt (search the addressbook for <string>).
	      The --datafile option, as documented above, may be used BEFORE this option to search a different addressbook file.

       --convert [ --informat <inputformat> ] [ --infile <inputfile> ] [ --outformat <outputformat> ] [ --outfile <outputfile> ]
	      Converts <inputfile> in <inputformat> to <outputfile> in <outputformat> (defaults are abook, stdin, text and stdout).

	      The following inputformats are supported:
	      - abook abook native format
	      - ldif ldif / Netscape addressbook
	      - mutt mutt alias
	      - pine pine addressbook
	      - csv comma separated values
	      - palmcsv Palm comma separated values

	      The following outputformats are supported:
	      - abook abook native format
	      - ldif ldif / Netscape addressbook (.4ld)
	      - mutt mutt alias
	      - html html document
	      - pine pine addressbook
	      - gcrd GnomeCard (VCard) addressbook
	      - csv comma separated values
	      - palmcsv Palm comma separated values
	      - elm elm alias
	      - text plain text
	      - spruce Spruce address book
	      - wl Wanderlust address book
	      - bsdcal BSD calendar

       --add-email
	      Read an e-mail message from stdin and add the sender to the addressbook.

       --add-email-quiet
	      Same as --add-email but doesn't confirm adding.

       --formats
	      List available formats.
