NAME
ADGNUMAILCONVERTER - Convert GNUMail addresses to Addresses format
SYNOPSIS
adgnumailconverter [filename]
DESCRIPTION
adgnumailconverter converts old GNUMail addresses to Addresses format.
The program uses the following heuristic to split GNUMail’s name field into Addresses’s first/last name fields:
|
1. |
Name contains a ",": Split it at the "," and put the first part into last name and the second part into first name. |
"Mueller, Fritz" -> "Mueller", "Fritz"
|
2. |
Name doesn’t contain a ",": Split it at spaces and put the last part into last name and everything else into first name. |
"Johnny B. Goode" -> "Goode", "Johnny B."
OPTIONS
adgnumailconverter only takes the filename of the GNUstep address book to convert (usually ˜/GNUstep/Library/GNUMail/AddressBook).
