Hi Ruth,
It's very simple; email it to yourself. After logging into PINE:
1. Use 'c' to compose a new email to your own email address.
2. Press ^r (control-r) to read the addressbook into the body of your
email. When it asks for a filename, use:
~/.addressbook
(that's a tilde, forward slash, a dot and the word 'addressbook')
3. Send it. When it arrives as an email in your account, just save it
as you would any other other email, export it to a file or print it as you
normally would any email.
Hope this helps,
FYI: quite a few CCN users still prefer PINE, which has now progressed
to version 1.0 called Alpine, although we still use version 4.64 of PINE.
