<p>People is a simple contact database using the <a href="../attributes.html">attributes</a> of Haiku's filesystem to store addresses and other contact information. Every contact is saved as one Person file with its data in separate attributes. All are indexed and therefore searchable with a <a href="../queries.html">query</a>.</p>

<p>The Group attribute at the bottom allows assigning a person to one or more groups. Useful for "mass mailing" a number of people who, for example, work on a specific project. The drop-down menu offers all currently existing groups. If a person belongs to more than one group, the group names are delimited with a "<tt>,</tt>".</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>These Person files are usually all saved in <span class="path">/boot/home/people/</span>. To get a list of all your contacts, just open your people folder and display all attributes of interest. If you choose to organize your Person files in different folders, just use a query to display them all in one window. </p>

|
<p>You can treat these files like any other: You can sort according to attributes (even a second sorting order by holding <span class="key">SHIFT</span> while clicking) and of course delete, duplicate or rename Person files. Even the contact information can be edited directly: Clicking on an attribute (or <span class="key">ALT</span> <span class="key">E</span>) to edit works just like renaming a file. Once you're in edit mode, <span class="key">TAB</span> and <span class="key">SHIFT</span> <span class="key">TAB</span> will jump from column to column.</p>
