Subject: how edit .addressbook with editor? (it's tricky)

in trying to figure out how i could add a list of addresses
that i already had in a separate file, i ran into trouble.
i tried to append that file to .addressbook, and make sure
it looked like the same format as other lists already included
in .addressbook, but the final result looked funny when i looked
at it within pine (huge space between name and address on each of
the previous lines, and what i appended to the end appeared at
the beginning instead).
can anyone offer guidance here?
(i'm trying to avoid adding lists of addresses one by one, manually)
thanks,
gideon
