NAME
bbdb-srv - Converts Mail-Headers to an Emacs-Lisp String. SYNOPSIS
echo Some Headers | bbdb-srv DESCRIPTION
This script reads a block of message headers on stdin, and converts them to an emacs-lisp string (quoting all dangerous characters) and then uses the `gnudoit' program to cause a running Emacs process to invoke the `bbdb-srv' function with that string. This has the effect of causing the running Emacs to display the BBDB record corresponding to these headers. See the Emacs side of things in bbdb-srv.el for more info. A trivial application of this is the shell command: echo 'From: Jamie Zawinski <jwz@netscape.com>' | bbdb-srv.perl which will cause the corresponding record to be displayed. A more interesting application of this is: setenv NS_MSG_DISPLAY_HOOK bbdb-srv.perl which will hook BBDB up to Mozilla (Unix Netscape Mail and Netscape News versions 3.0b2 and later only.)

NAME
bbdb-areacode-split - Looks for phone numbers in your .bbdb SYNOPSIS
bbdb-areacode-split <old-code> <new-code> <exchanges-file> [bbdb] DESCRIPTION
Looks for phone numbers in your .bbdb with a particular area code and one of a set of exchanges and changes the area code. The old and new area codes are specified on the command line, as is the location of a file that contains the exchanges that are being changed. (The format of that file is very loose. Every three digit sequence will be used.) This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.
