There is nothing (and there shouldn't be, right?) in bdb which
prevents me from using multi-line fields; except for one annoyance
which i discovered:
Consider a field
====================================================
Name1 Name2
CA: (401) 248-1822
offi: (408) 944-7573
Address 1 Address 2: Cadence Design , inc.
2655 Seely avenue
San Jose CA
95134
(devedddndra viddni: 650 967 3226): net: [EMAIL PROTECTED]$
notes: some notes..
====================================================
where i have made the address multiline (because i didn't want to
edit each address-line separately, i just wanted to paste all my
mouse-contents.. from another buffer..)
bbdb doesn't complain..
except that:
if i go down to the notes field and press e, bbdb errors:
On unfield..
If i go to the second line of address and press e, bbdb starts editing
notes instead..
U get the idea..
i think it would be nice if bbdb did not assume single-line fields
like it does above..
