Re: Appending results
I just grabbed v2.36 from CVS and gave it a try - it does indeed do the append results thing as advertised. Something must have gotten fixed/changed between v2.35 v2.36. Thanks for the pointer to the new version. Ciao Mark pgpohpIfafAmO.pgp Description: PGP signature -- Xperia(TM) PLAY It's a major breakthrough.

Appending results
Hello, I'm using BBDB 2.35 and ran into a small problem. Probably user error but I couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong. Say I have two records, Bob Alice and I want to bring them up together so I can then easily send them both an email. I had thought I could search for Bob, then hit '+' to run bbdb-append-records, then run bbdb again and search for Alice. This resulted in a buffer with just Alice in it, Bob's record was cleared out. I also tried using bbdb-name thinking that something in bbdb specifically cleared out the buffer but it also replaced the buffer with the new contents. Am I doing something wrong? Or am I misunderstanding what bbdb-append-records is for? Thanks in advance, Mark pgp7oGNvGDC1M.pgp Description: PGP signature -- Xperia(TM) PLAY It's a major breakthrough.

Are you sure it's cleared out? + works for me as you expect it to, but it always seems to scroll the buffer such that the appended record is shown. M- (beginning of buffer) or C-l (recenter) solves it. -- Dave Goldberg david.goldbe...@verizon.net -- Xperia(TM) PLAY It's a major breakthrough.

Are there any hooks which the bbdb command might run that would clear out existing results? I don't think I have very many BBDB settings so I'll check that out.

I certainly am not doing anything special to enable it. I see you said you're running 2.35. I'm using 2.36 from the CVS repository on sourcefore. Perhaps there's a bug fix there. -- Dave Goldberg david.goldbe...@verizon.net -- Xperia(TM) PLAY It's a major breakthrough. An authentic gaming smartphone on the nation's most reliable network.
