Import records from the BBDB

This can be done by bbdb-to-lsdb.el which comes with the LSDB. Type the following command from shell:

 emacs -batch -l ./bbdb-to-lsdb.el

Discussion

So far this page nor the home page really tell me what I’d really like to know… What has lsdb got that makes it more attractive than bbdb? ;) --MartinSchoenmakers
