Contacts allows you to manage your contacts using a vcf file layout (vCard). You can view, change, add or delete a contact.

Contacts was developed under Cygwin with LUA Player.

Features

• Manage your contacts using a vcf file layout (vCard).
• Read vcf files exported from Email clients like Outlook, Thunderbird, etc.. , from cellphone, from PDA, etc...
• Export vcf files so you can import them in the above listed applications.
• Modify or create contacts on the go with your PSP.
• You can create your own theme for the application.

User guide

The available fields are:

• Display Name
• Last Name
• First Name
• Middle Name
• Title
• Home Phone
• Work Phone
• Home Fax
• Cellphone
• Address (Street, extended address, PO Box, City, Zip code, Province, Country)
• Email

How to use

The vcf directory can be found here for the LUA Player version:

/PSP/GAME/luaplayer/Applications/contacts/vcf

The vcf directory can be found here for the standalone version:

/PSP/GAME/contacts/vcf

Extract your contacts as vcf files (vCard) into the directory vcf by using the export option. The option should be available in most of the mail applications, Palm Desktop, cellphones, etc....

You can also create new contacts manually if needed.

If you've modified or created contacts on your PSP, you can import the vcf files from your Memory Stick (in the vcf directory) into your PC, Palm, or phone address book.

If you want to add contacts from your PC, Palm, or phone, export them as vcf (vCard) files. Then, place the exported file in the vcf directory. The contact name will match the vcf file name.

For example, if you have a file /vcf/VCF003.vcf containing a vCard for "Cancan," it will appear as VCF003 in the contact list.

After entering Edit mode (Cross) and saving the contact (Select), the contact's Display Name will replace the file name. So, VCF003.vcf will be renamed to Cancan.vcf.

Commands

The available commands are displayed in each screen. To quit the application, use Start in LUAPlayer, and Home for the standalone version.

For the text input how to, please refer to the danzeff.txt file.

Themes

Two themes are included, they are placed in contacts/themes directory.

The themes directory names are default, second and jewels, the name of the default directory must not be changed.

You can add themes by creating a new directory (will be the theme name) and copying all needed files into it.

For each theme you can change the .png files. You must respect the file size and names. Thing that the file name is clear enough. Transparent files can be used. You can also change the color used for the text.

The settings are done in the file colors.ini in each theme directory.

For example if you want to change the color of the selected fields, change the values r, g and b in the line

selected = Color.new(r,g,b)
