Contacts 0.7 for Lua Player

[cancan]

New release of the contacts script.

Here the Changelog:


- Read and save single vcf file (vCard) into the directory vcf instead of reading a file containing multiple vcf files
This to make it easier to sync the contacts between the psp and mail clients (Outlook, Thunderbird, Palm Desktop, ...)

- Field can be selected with the A-PAD in the Edit screen

- Selection of themes available in the directory themes

- Separate the functions in differents lua scripts (vcf, keyboard and themes).
This will allow someone to include one or the other script in another program if needed (please let me know in case of)

- Better GUI

- Code cleanup

Part of the readme.txt file

Manage your contacts using a vcf file layout (vCard)

You can view, change, add or delete a contact
Theme support

Available fields are:
---------------------
Display name

Last Name
First Name
Middle Name
Title

Phone Home
Phone Work
Fax Home
Cell Home

Address (street, extended address, PO Box, City, Zip code, Province, Country)

Email

=== How to ==========================

the vcf directory can be found here:
P:/PSP/GAME/luaplayer/Applications/contacts/vcf where P: is the memory stick drive

Extract your contacts as vcf files (vCard) into the directory vcf by using the export option.
Option available in quite all the mail applications, Palm Desktop, cellphones, etc....

You can also start from scratch

There is no synchronisation tool. You must do by hand.
In order to have the modified/created ones from the PSP in your PC/Palm/phone address book, just import
the vcf file from the memory stick (in the vcf directory)

In order to have the modified/created ones from your PC/Palm/phone, export as vcf file (vCard) and
put the file in the vcf directory

Please note that the contact name is according the name of the vcf file.
If you copy in the vcf directory a file named VCF003.vcf containing the vCard for Cancan
then you will see VCF003 in the contact list.
After going into Edit mode (with X) and saving (with Select) the file name will get change to
the Display Name of the Edit screen.
The physical file with then be renamed from VCF003.vcf to Cancan.vcf
Normally when exporting a vCard the same rule applyes therefore when extracting a vCard from Outlook
when Display Name is Cancan you will get a Cancan.vcf file. Therefore no problem.
