The TDE addressbook ================================================================================ If you want kab to be extended, please send a mail to me. Also contact me if you want to comment some of the features mentioned below. Send the mail to mirko@kde.org Thanks. PS: I am still looking for volunteers who try writing the import filters. Most often I do not have the different other addressbook programs myselfes. PS1: This TODO list deals with tasks to add to the TDE addressbook library. If you want the application to be extended, read tdeutils/kab/TODO. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- � [done] change mail addresses to an unlimited list with selection before sending an email � [done] allow user to add custom fields � [partly implemented] a searchable keyword field � automatic menus for kmail and ktalk -> a matter of the applications � [done for HTML in KDE 1.1] add export methods � [done, even more flexible] enhance the telephone numbers section, using home/work/..., fixed/mobile, and so on � [done] some functions in the main display, like clickable parts (email/talk addresses, possibly telephony support?), � [done] IMPORTANT: Possibility to use different files and, most important, common addressbooks for different people. � add "Nick name" field (after KDE 2.0) � improve speed of database indexing -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mirko Boehm, June 2000.
