Hi,
I've recently setup mutt with a gmail account to sent patches to gcc-patches,
and realized it would be convenient to add the email addresses in the
MAINTAINERS file to the mutt address book.
I've written this script, that in normal mode generates the
<name, email address> info in csv format:
...
Aaron Sawdey, acsaw...@linux.ibm.com
Aaron W. LaFramboise, aaronava...@aaronwl.com
...
Zdenek Dvorak, o...@ucw.cz
Ziga Mahkovec, ziga.mahko...@klika.si
...
and in --mutt mode generates mutt aliases:
...
alias Aaron_Sawdey Aaron Sawdey <acsaw...@linux.ibm.com>
alias Aaron_W_LaFramboise Aaron W. LaFramboise <aaronava...@aaronwl.com>
...
alias Zdenek_Dvorak Zdenek Dvorak <o...@ucw.cz>
alias Ziga_Mahkovec Ziga Mahkovec <ziga.mahko...@klika.si>
...
Good or bad idea?
Any other comments?
OK for trunk?
Thanks,
- Tom
