This perl script provides easy conversion of your filtering rules
form sylpheed's old filter system to the new filtering system used
- in sylpheed-claws. It reads 'filterrc' and outputs 'filteringrc'.
-
+ in sylpheed-claws. It reads '~/.sylpheed/filterrc' and outputs
+ '~/.sylpheed/matcherrc'.
+
HOW TO USE IT
- Move 'filter_conv.pl' to the $HOME/.sylpheed directory.
- From the $HOME/.sylpheed directory, issue the command:
+ Issue the following command from the 'tools' directory:
perl filter_conv.pl

+* kmail2sylpheed.pl
+
+ WHAT IT DOES
+
+ This perl script will convert an exported Kmail addressbook into a
+ Sylpheed addressbook.
+
+ HOW TO USE IT
+
+ (You must run sylpheed at least once before running this script.)
+
+ In Kmail's Addressbook choose '/File/Export List'. This will export
+ your Kmail addressbook data to a *.csv file.
+
+ If Sylpheed is running, close it.
+
+ From the command line, execute the following:
+
+ perl kmail2sylpheed.pl --kmailfile=/path/to/addressbook.csv
+
+ Your Kmail addressbook data will now be contained in Sylpheed's
+ addressbook, under the name 'Kmail Address Book'.

WHAT IT DOES

+* newscache_clean.pl
+
+ 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.
+
+ 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>
+
+ Any questions, comments or problems, contact Paul <claws@thewildbeast.co.uk>

+
+* sylpheed-switcher
+
+ WHAT IT DOES
+
+ This perl script is for users who like to move between the main
+ sylpheed branch and the claws branch. Because of some differences
+ between the stored options it is better IMO to use two separate
+ '.sylpheed' directory trees. Doing that manually could prove to
+ be tiresome, and so I've written this script to automate the task.
+
+ The first time you run this script you enter the full paths,
+ including the executable itself, to both the main version of
+ sylpheed and the claws version. This information is then stored
+ in a file in your $HOME directory called '.sylpheed-switcher'
+
+ During this initial set-up, your '~/.sylpheed' directory
+ is copied to '~/.sylpheed-main' and '~/.sylpheed-claws'.
+
+ When you run sylpheed via this script, your '~/.sylpheed' directory
+ is deleted and replaced with a symbolic link to either ~/.sylpheed-main'
+ or '~/sylpheed-claws', depending on the option you choose.
+ (On subsequent usage the symbolic link is deleted and replaced with
+ a new symbolic link).
+
+ HOW TO USE IT
+
+ Initial set-up
+ Enter the full paths to the executable, including the executable itself,
+ example:
+
+ ./sylpheed-switcher --claws-path=/usr/local/bin/sylpheed --main-path=
+ /usr/bin/sylpheed
+
+ After the initial set-up, use the following:
+
+ ./sylpheed-switcher --claws (to run sylpheed-claws)
+ ./sylpheed-switcher --main (to run sylpheed main)
+
+ Additionally you can append --debug to run in debug mode.
+ Use --help for more info.
+
+ This script uses the File::Path and Getopt::Long modules, if you don't already
+ have them installed, you can find them at the CPAN search site
+ <http://search.cpan.org>
