+ For text files only works with fields described above. If you have

+
+ For csv files you must export all fields (but only non empty fields
+ are added to the created Sylpheed address book) and the number of
+ fields expected is harcoded. Look for the $nboffields variable in
+ the script and change its value if you are sure you exported all
+ fields and script gives the 'unknown csv file format' error.

+* vcard2xml.py
+
+ WHAT IT DOES
+ This python script will convert an Evolution vCard into a Sylpheed
+ address book.
+
+ HOW TO USE IT
+ (You must run sylpheed at least once before running this script.)
+
+ If Sylpheed is running, close it.
+ From the command line, execute the following:
+
+ vcard2xml.py source_file [destination_file]
+
+ When only <source_file> is specified it will overwrite (and
+ create a backup of) the existing addressbook.
+ When both arguments are suplied it will create a new additional
+ addressbook named as <destination_file>.
+ If the script encounters an error it will attempt to roll back
+ the changes and restore the original files.

HOW TO USE IT

Contact: Paul Mangan <claws@thewildbeast.co.uk>
-* newscache_clean.pl
+* nautilus2sylpheed.sh
- WHAT IT DOES AND WHY IT DOES IT
- This perl script cleans up in '$HOME/.sylpheed/newscache'. Currently
- the newscache becomes littered with old directories and files - when
- you subscribe to a newsgroup a sub-directory gets created for it in
- ~/.sylpheed/newscache/[nntpserver], should you unsubscribe from the
- group the sub-directory does not get deleted. Until this is done
- internally this script will take care of some tidying up.
-
- This script removes directory trees of nntp servers that you no longer
- have an account for. Where an account exists it removes directories
- and files of those groups to which you are no longer subscribed.
+ WHAT IT DOES
+ This script will recursively attach a number of selected
+ files/directories from Nautilus to a new blank e-mail.
HOW TO USE IT
- Issue the following command from the 'tools' directory:
-
- perl newscache_clean.pl
-
- This script uses the File::Path module, if you don't already have it
- installed, you can find it at the CPAN search site
- <http://search.cpan.org>
-
- Contact: Paul Mangan <claws@thewildbeast.co.uk>
+ Copy the script to $HOME/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts, chmod u+x,
+ and restart nautilus (killall -9 nautilus). You will now have
+ a right-click menu item: '/Scripts/nautilus2sylpheed.sh'
