NAME

mutt_vc_query — vCard query utility for mutt

SYNOPSIS

mutt_vc_query [-m | -e] [-t type] [-f datafile] query

mutt_vc_query [-v]

mutt_vc_query [-V]

mutt_vc_query [-h]

DESCRIPTION

A vCard query utility for mutt. This utility can be used at the shell prompt to perform ad-hoc queries, but it is meant to be used by mutt's "query_command" option. Place the following line in your "~/.muttrc" file:

set query_command = "mutt_vc_query '%s'"

The search using the given query string will be case insensitive. The options are as follows:

-e
Sort the results by email.
-a
Output all email addresses associated with a contact, instead of just the preferred address.
-f
Use the datafile to perform the query.
-h
Display usage help.
-m
Sort the results by the miscellaneous field.
-t
Uses the specified type for the miscellaneous field.
-v
Display the version.
-V
Display the copyright and license.

FILES

~/.rolo/contacts.vcf
Default data file that mutt_vc_query will query.

EXAMPLES

To query for the string "Hsu" and have the miscellaneous field be populated by the type "NICKNAME":

mutt_vc_query -t NICKNAME Hsu
