Sorry for the late reply. I did not look at the source code. It is way too
complicated for my understanding. The only "documentation" for Mork is in
rhis newsgroup itself. None of the messages expire here (if you are at
news.mozilla.org, anyway). I would recommend looking through mid 1999 posts.
Some interesting posts are:
a series of posts on 6/8/1999, 5/19/1999, 3/30/1999, 3/16/1999, 12/21/1998
by David McCusker (I guess, a good person to contact if he's available).
After reading that, I figured some out by myself and now I have a good
address book reader (incremental changes not supported). Right now I am
working on the writer which is a bit harder to implement independantly.

p.s. Now that I'm going through the list again, I see I'll find this info
useful, so thanks for making me look back on it. But why isn't it published
anywhere?
