Contacts 0.8.3

Contacts is a stand-alone address book application for the ROX Desktop. There is an extra package for users of other freedesktop.org compliant environments.
You can use Contacts to view and create vCard business cards. Contacts creates a vCard for every contact and stores it in a central directory in your home folder. A reasonable subset of rfc2426 has been implemented.
Main features:
Tabs
- There are two tabs, one for home, one for work related data.
Drag & Drop Loading
- You can load a vCard by dragging it onto Contacts.
- You can add a sound, photo or logo the same way. Contacts figures out by filetype which is which. Drag an image onto the "Home" tab if you want it to be added as a photo. To add a logo image, switch to the "Work" tab before dragging!
Searching
- Use the toolbar entry for searching contacts.
Extended Attributes
- Contacts saves the cards with extended attributes on Linux and Solaris, if supported by the filesystem:
- user.mime_type = text/directory
- user.creator = Contacts
My Card
- You can tell Contacts which card is yours: "Menu->My Card->This is my card"
- At any later time you can easily load your card by pressing "Alt-M" or from
- "Menu->My Card->Open my card"
PGP
- Contacts supports embedded public PGP keys.
- They can be exported from a vCard to a file, or directly imported into your keyring.
Live Toolbar
- The presence of NOTE, KEY, SOUND, PHOTO, LOGO, GEO/TZ properties is indicated by toolbar icon.
- Info about those properties is available through the icon tooltip. Click to edit!
- You add them in the first place via menu and short-cuts or dragn drop, respectively.
Birthday Notification
- Nearing birthdays are indicated by the color of a birthday cake in the toolbar:
- Next birthday more than a week away
- Next birthday within seven days
- Next birthday tomorrow
- There is a birthday today
- When there is no birthdate recorded for any of your contacts, no cake is shown.
