## プロジェクトの歴史と使われ方
abook is a terminal address-book program centered on simple local contact storage and integration with the mutt mail client. It matters in package-manager culture because it is the kind of small ncurses utility Unix users install to make mail workflows scriptable without adopting a desktop contacts stack.
### プロジェクトの歴史
The project README identifies abook as an addressbook program with mutt support and credits JH, while the manual page credits Jaakko Heinonen as the author. Its ChangeLog shows a long 0.x development line with early 0.1.0 pre-releases, migration through 0.4.x terminal and import/export work, and later 0.6.x releases adding custom fields, vCard improvements, color, mouse support, key remapping, iCalendar output, and XDG-related changes.
### 採用の歴史
abook spread as a packaging-friendly Unix utility: the input metadata lists packages for Homebrew, Alpine, Debian, Fedora, MacPorts, Nix, Ubuntu, and openSUSE. The upstream README also lists successful builds across Linux, Darwin, Solaris, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, GNU/Hurd, AIX, HPUX, Irix, and DEC Alpha-era systems.
### 使われ方
The documented mutt workflow sets query_command to run abook --mutt-query and can pipe messages to abook --add-email. The manual also documents conversion between abook, LDIF, mutt aliases, Pine, CSV, Palm CSV, vCard, HTML, text, ELM, Wanderlust, iCalendar, BSD calendar, and custom formats.
### パッケージ好きにとっての重要性
For package nerds, abook is notable as a compact ncurses-era tool with optional readline behavior, many text import/export filters, and a stable command-line interface that fits mailcap-style Unix composition. Its continued packaging across many distributions reflects the durability of mutt-adjacent tools.
### タイムライン
- 0.1.0-pre-release 1: Earliest ChangeLog entry.
- 0.3.0: New portable file format, FreeBSD build support, mutt send-mail command, and multiple e-mail address support.
- 0.4.9: Added support for the systemwide /etc/abook.conf configuration file.
- 2002: 2002 ChangeLog entries added getopt parsing, readline support, and storage of rcfile and addressbook under the .abook directory.
- 0.5.5: Added internationalization and several translations.
- 0.6.1: Added vCard parser improvements, color support, mouse support, and mutt groups support.
- 0.6.2: Upgraded license to GPLv3 and added XDG base-directory compliance.
### Related projects
- mutt is the closest companion project in the upstream documentation, since abook is designed to answer mutt address queries and ingest mail senders. The README also positions abook among Unix contact-file formats by documenting conversion to and from LDIF, Pine, vCard, CSV, ELM, and Wanderlust data.
