+* 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.

- in sylpheed-claws. It reads '~/.sylpheed/filterrc' and outputs
- '~/.sylpheed/matcherrc'.
+ form sylpheed's old filter system (pre version 0.9.99) to the new
+ filtering system used in sylpheed-claws.
+ It reads '~/.sylpheed/filterrc' and outputs '~/.sylpheed/matcherrc'.

-* 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>

+ 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'
