+* calypso_convert.pl
+
+ WHAT IT DOES
+
+ This perl script imports mbox files that are exported by Calypso.
+ It recreates the folder structure by scanning the "X-CalypsoFolder"
+ header and reincludes the attachments referenced in the
+ "X-CalypsoHtmlBody" "X-CalypsoAccount" "X-Attachment" headers.
+
+ HOW TO USE IT
+
+ Export the Calypso mailbox by selecting "Save to archive" and check
+ the "Save attachments" box.
+ Edit the script to set following variables (at the top of the file):
+ $mboxdir : path to the exported mbox, e.g. 'Archive' or '.'
+ $mboxfile : name of exported mbox, e.g. 'mail.txt'
+ $outdir : name of the MH folder to create, e.g. 'Calypso'
+ Run the script using
+ perl calypso_convert.pl
+ Finally, import that folder by either selecting "New mailbox" or
+ moving it into your existing directory and recreate the folder
+ structure manually (contentmenu from folderview).

WHAT IT DOES
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 '~/.sylpheed/filterrc' and outputs
- '~/.sylpheed/filteringrc'.
+ '~/.sylpheed/matcherrc'.
- Your old filter settings are preserved, if you want to go back to
- the original filter system simply delete ~/.sylpheed/filteringrc
-
HOW TO USE IT
Issue the following command from the 'tools' directory:
That's it, the new filtering system is now implemented with your
previous rules applied.

-* ldif-to-xml.py
+* kmail2sylpheed.pl
+
+ WHAT IT DOES
+
+ This perl script will convert an exported Kmail addressbook into a
+ Sylpheed addressbook. If your version of Kmail is 1.37 or greater
+ and/or your version of KAddressBook is 3.1beta1 or greater, or
+ this script mixes up your definitions and their related data, use
+ 'kmail2sylpheed_v2.pl' instead.

+
+ (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'.

+
+* 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>

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* OOo2sylpheed.pl
WHAT IT DOES
+
+ This perl script enables OpenOffice.org to send documents to sylpheed
+ as attachments.
+
+ HOW TO USE IT
+
+ Edit line 29 of the script so that it contains the correct path:
+ exec "/usr/local/bin/sylpheed --attach $ARGV";
+
+ Start up OpenOffice.org.
+ Go to 'Tools/Options/OpenOffice.org/External Programs'
+ Enter the path to this script in the 'Program' box
+ or select it by clicking on the '...' button.
+
+ You can then use 'File/Send/Document as email' to launch sylpheed
+ (if not already launched) and open a new compose window with the
+ document attached.
- This python script converts the netscape ldif format address book to
- the sylpheed xml format.

- In case of trouble, just invoke your python interpreter directly:
+* 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>
+
+ Any questions, comments or problems, contact Paul <claws@thewildbeast.co.uk>

+
+* tb2sylpheed
+
+ WHAT IT DOES
+
+ This perl script will convert an addressbook exported from The Bat! into
+ a Sylpheed addressbook.
+
+ HOW TO USE IT
+
+ (You must run sylpheed at least once before running this script.)
+
+ If Sylpheed is running, close it.
+
+ Export The Bat! Address Book to CSV file format with all fields
+ selected to YES and then start:
+
+ tb2sylpheed --tbfile=/full/path/to/thebat/addressbook.csv
+
+ The Bat! addressbook data will now be contained in Sylpheed's
+ addressbook, under the name 'The Bat! Address Book'.

+* update-po
+
+ WHAT IT DOES
+
+ This script is a message catalog translator's tool, it updates the .po
+ files named on the command line.
+
+ HOW TO USE IT
+
+ This script needs to be copied to and run from the 'po' directory.
+
+ ./update-po lang.po lang2.po ...
- python ldif-to-xml.py <path/filename>
+ to update one or more <yourlang>.po files from the sourcecode files
+ named in POTFILES.in. The old .po file is save in a .po.old file.
- Either way a file called addressbook.xml will be generated in the current
- directory. This xml file should be merged with or simply placed in the
- $HOME/.sylpheed directory.
+ For example, when you want to update fr.po, run ./update-po fr.po,
+ then edit fr.po to update your translation.
- Any problems, contact Rod Senra <rodrigo.senra@ic.unicamp.br>
