1
+ = Rwd Address Book
2
+
3
+
4
+ == How to Use the Address Book (rwdaddresses)
5
+
6
+ There are two ways to add records to rwdaddresses address book.
7
+
8
+ == Adding Records
9
+
10
+ 1. Use the "New File" tab
11
+ The first field is the most important. It is the filename that
12
+ will be created. I use the person's name with caps and no spaces
13
+ RingoStarr
14
+
15
+ The following lines for entry are for you to fill in as you want.
16
+ When you are finished press the CreateFile button
17
+
18
+ 2. Manually add an entry for a person record
19
+ You can use a text editor to create a record
20
+ put information on separate lines. You can have as many lines as you want
21
+ name the file with caps and no spaces and end with .nam
22
+ RingoStarr.nam<
23
+
24
+ Save your file to the names/ subdirectory
25
+
26
+
27
+ This is similar to how you add a photo to the book.
28
+
29
+
30
+ == Viewing an address book entry:
31
+
32
+
33
+ Go to "View Contact" tab
34
+
35
+ Type in the name of the contact you want.
36
+
37
+ Type it as the record file is saved: (caps, no space)
38
+ StevenGibson
39
+
40
+ Then click the "Open" button
41
+
42
+ If it finds the record it will open it. It displays the record as text under the search box.
43
+
44
+
45
+
46
+ == Viewing Photo
47
+
48
+
49
+ Click on the ? at the top right of window
50
+
51
+
52
+ If it finds a photo for the person it will replace the window with the photo
53
+
54
+
55
+ it will look for the same name as the record with the extension .png
56
+
57
+
58
+ To return to the address book, click on back arrows at the top right.
59
+
60
+ For now you need to add photos manually.
61
+
62
+ add them to the names/ directory
63
+
64
+ == List Files
65
+
66
+ Click on "List Files"
67
+
68
+
69
+
70
+ clicking on the "ListFiles" button will list all
71
+ the files found in the names/ directory
72
+
73
+
74
+ == Add Info
75
+
76
+ For edits to records go to the contacts utilities tab
77
+ You can
78
+ Rename contacts
79
+ Delete contacts
80
+ attach photos to contacts
81
+
82
+ == Attach photo
83
+ on the Contacts Utilities tab
84
+ select the name record,
85
+ put a jpg photo in the /tmp directory
86
+ select the photo
87
+ click on Attach photo, it will rename the photo and copy it to the
88
+ addresses directory
89
+
90
+ == Sync for multiple computers
91
+
92
+ If you are like me, you have more than one system
93
+ I use rwdTinker at home on my Linux laptop
94
+ at work I use it on XP
95
+ on the go I use rwdtinker on my Zaurus PDA
96
+ So I am adding contact record on different machines.
97
+ There is a function to help sync the separate systems
98
+
99
+ in "Selection Panel" click on "Open Schedule Sync Window"
100
+
101
+ First you need your ftp details set in the
102
+ configuration/rwdaddresses.cnf file
103
+
104
+ you can upload your contacts from your local names directory to the ftp site
105
+ you can download contacts from the ftp site to your local updates directory
106
+ you can perform a sync which finds remote contacts and adds them to your local
107
+ names directory
108
+
109
+ == Change to using png photos instead of jpg
110
+
111
+ If you want to
112
+ Need to change one line in file rwdaddresses.cnf
113
+ Need to add nophoto.png in names
114
+
115
+ == Documents
116
+
117
+
118
+ when you click on a document name, the document should pop up in a
119
+ browser window, or in another browser tab.
120
+
121
+ == Using over a Network
122
+
123
+ To serve the application over your local LAN,change the last line in the
124
+ init.rb file to something like:
125
+ RwdTinker.file(RWDFile).serve(8080, "-r" ? ".rwduids" : nil)
126
+ Then you should be able to login at: http://yourhostname:8080
127
+
128
+ You have to authorize yourself. The .rwuids example is a string with
129
+ the name of the authorization file, relative to the home directory
130
+ of the user that started the service. This file has to be in the form of:
131
+
132
+ user1 = password
133
+ user2 = pass phrase
134
+
135
+ Thus the file .rwduids might contain:
136
+
137
+ erik = secret
138
+
139
+ == Contacts
140
+ For more information see:

+ http://rwdapplications.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl
