KABC Client, the command line client for KDE's address book

4.1

These pages describe the classes used in the kabcclient program, which serves as a non-GUI access method to KDE's address book, e.g. for use in scripts

Overview

KABC Client provides multiple methods for creating contact data from text input and multiple methods for formatting contact data into text form. See page Handling of various input and output formats

In both input and output handling there is an option for working with CSV data, i.e. text data where each line is a whole record and is composed of columns or fields separated by a fixed delimiter string.

Since these format's sub options are to complex to be specified as command line parameters, they are read from configuration files, so-called "templates" originally invented for KAddressBook's CSV handling. See page Handling of CSV (comma separated values) input/output
