Subject: Inserting a record from your bbdb into the buffer
Date: Thu, 01 Jul 2010 16:57:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87hbkjw8py.fsf@linux-lqcw.site> (raw)
A friend of mine wanted to insert a record with:
C-u M-x bbdb
But that does not work. Because of this I hacked the following
function:
(defun dcbl-insert-bbdb-record (name)
(interactive "sName: ")
(let ((no-of-records)
(records (bbdb-search (bbdb-records) name)))
(setq no-of-records (length records))
(if (= no-of-records 1)
(bbdb-format-record (car records))
(message "%s gives %d records" name no-of-records))))
It is far from perfect, but it gets the job done. I hope that people
will find it useful.
