Package: lbdb
Version: 0.36
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/lib/lbdb/vcquery

lbdb works with three fields per data set, but vcquery only returns
two columns. Maybe it would be possible to add a third, configurable
column? Either I'd just say e.g. show the NICKNAME in the third
column, or better yet: a format specification with which to obtain
and format any number of fields.

E.g.

  VCQUERY_FIELD3="%(NICKNAME) was born on %(BDAY)" vcquery …

would yield:

Thanks,
