Hello,

While trying to do some scripting on the TBUDL list, I discovered some
undocumented features that should be added to the help-file.  The
command-line parameter /Import can import to the address book as well.
The options for the parameter are: (Note: I basically copied these
word for word from the /Export command.  I haven't tested every
contingency listed, but the basics work as outlined.)

LDIF                if  this parameter is specified, an address import
                    will  be  performed. The INPUT parameter specifies
                    the  name  of  an input file that holds data to be
                    imported in LDIF format.

ADDRESSBOOK=value   (only  for  use  with  the  LDIF  parameter) value
or AB=value or      specifies a name, filename or the full path of the
BOOK=value          address  book which is to receive addresses. If no
                    address  book  is specified, The Bat! will use the
                    default address book.

GROUP=value or      (only  for  use  with  the  LDIF  parameter) value
G=value             specifies the handle of the address group which is
                    to  receive  addresses.  If  no  address  book  is
                    explicitly  specified,  The  Bat!  will search all
                    address  books  for  the  first  group  whose name
                    matches the specified handle.

FILE=value or       value  is  a  file  mask with the pathname for the
IN=value or         input  files.  The  /IMPORT  command  can  have an
INFILE=value or     unlimited number of FILE parameters.
I=value

There are some additional flags for the /Export command which have no
corresponding term in the /Import command.  Does anyone know if they
exist, what their function is, etc?  The ones I'm talking about are:

UNREAD or N
REPLIED or RE
UNREPLIED or NR
PARKED or PR
UNPARKED or UP
MAXAGE=value or AGE=value or A=value
START=value or S=value
END=value or E=value

I guess for an import command, the first 5 options would set the
appropriate message property, whereas in an export command, they act
as filters.  Also, now that we have colour groups and message flags,
are there corresponding filters from the command-line?
flags, does anyone know if there are filters for these criteria too?

I had a really great tagline to put here, but I can't remember what it
was.
