Subject: Copying Global Addressbook Entries to a Personal Book

Does Pine have any built-in facility to copy address information from the 
system's Global Addressbook to a personal address book?  Outside of Pine, 
I have found that you can grep the global file for the name you want and 
append the output to the personal file (.addressbook).  Then Pine sees what 
was added when you start it.  But is there a more direct way?  This 
method can easily get more than you want, which then has to be deleted.

No, but the next version will have a TakeAddress command which works from 
one address book to another just like it works from a message to an 
address book.
