The first public beta release of the Tcladdressbook extension for Tcl has
been posted today. This is version 1.0b1.
Tcladdressbook is a Tcl extension defining a new Tcl command called
addressbook which lets you manipulate the OSX AddressBook. Under OSX
(versions 10.2 or greater) every user has a single addressbook which all
applications are allowed to share.
The addressbook command has many subcommands such as addressbook
create, addressbook persons, addressbook record, addressbook set etc. used
to invoke the various actions to perform.
Note that this extension is useful only on Macintosh platforms with OSX
System. Version 10.2 (aka Jaguar) or greater of the system is required.
