They are only frontends to the same data. There is even a third one: abbrowser. However, the address management capabilities in KDE2 are...lets say... simple. Almost all features that would make its use worthwhile are left out. :-( And whoever got the idea to store the data file in a _hidden_ directory of the home dir (~/.kde/share/apps/kab) should get...oh well... You cannot even configure the used file anywhere but in source :-( So if you delete ~/.kde because you messed things up or simply by accident... Also, no grouping that would make email lists in kmail possible (even the old Netscape can do this!) or support for importing vCards (.vcf) or simply having the option to store the data as vCards in a chosen dir. Anybody knows if kab gets more useful in KDE3? Does anybody know why there is no "pipe to program" feature in the save dialog of KDE (or the equivalent in the load dialog)? Does anybody know _where_ code would have to be inserted to make this possible?
