Hi,

I missed not having the ability to export my Sylpheed address books.  I
see this is a commonly requested feature [0], and it's on the Sylpheed
TODO list [1]. In the meantime, I've written sylxml2csv, a little Perl
script to do the job. It requires the XML::Parser [2] and Text::CSV_XS
[3] Perl modules.  sylxml2csv reads a sylpheed xml address book from
standard input and prints a CSV version to standard output (e.g.
'sylxml2csv < abook.xml > abook.csv').  I'm releasing it under the Perl
Artistic License [4];  it's attached to this message. Enjoy, and
provide feedback!
