+ <guilabel>Categories</guilabel> feature, which is discussed in
+ <xref linkend="usage-contact-organize">, there are a few
+ things you'll want to know about: the first of these is the
+ <guilabel>Full Name</guilabel> button.

<para>
- You can add cards from within an email message or calendar
- appointment. While looking at an email, right-click on any
- email address or message, and choose <guimenuitem>Create Card
- for this Address</guimenuitem> or <guimenuitem>Create Card for
- this Sender</guimenuitem> from the menu. While looking at a
- calendar appointment, right-click any email address, and
- choose <guimenuitem>Create Card for this
- Address</guimenuitem>. (NOTE that feature may change!
- unimplemented!)
+ You can enter a name into the <guibutton>Full Name</guibutton>
+ field, or you can click the button to bring up a small dialog
+ box with a few text boxes:
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem> <para>
+ <guilabel>Title:</guilabel>Enter an honorific or select one from the menu.
+ </para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem> <para> <guilabel>First:</guilabel>The person's first, or given, name.
+ </para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem> <para>
+ <guilabel>Middle:</guilabel>The middle name or initial, if any, goes here.
+ </para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem> <para>
+ <guilabel>Last:</guilabel>The last name (surname, family name), belongs here.
+ </para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem> <para>
+ <guilabel>Suffix:</guilabel>Suffixes such as "Jr." or "III" can go here.
+ </para></listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>

+ <para>
+ The <guilabel>Full Name</guilabel> field has one more trick
+ up its sleeve: it interacts with the <guilabel>File
+ As</guilabel> box to help you organize your contacts. To
+ see how it works, type a name in the <guilabel>Full
+ Name</guilabel> field: <userinput>Eva Lucianne
+ Tester</userinput>. You'll notice that the
+ <guilabel>File As</guilabel> field also fills up, but in
+ reverse: <computeroutput>Tester,
+ Lucianne</computeroutput>. You can pick
+ <computeroutput>Eva Tester</computeroutput> from the
+ drop-down, or type in your own, such as
+ <userinput>Lucianne Tester, Eva</userinput>. I suggest that
+ you don't enter something entirely different from the
+ actual name, since you might forget that you've filed
+ Eva's information under "F" for "Fictitious Helix Code
+ Employees" </para>
- <para>
- You delete a card by pressing the <guibutton>Delete
- Card</guibutton> button, or by dragging it into the trash
- folder.
- </para>
+ <para>
+ The other feature I want to mention involves the little
+ squares next to several of the fields. Click on them and
+ you'll get a menu of different labels; for the fields in the
+ telephone section, it's a long list involving things like
+ <guilabel>Home</guilabel>, <guilabel>Home 2</guilabel>,
+ <guilabel>Other Fax</guilabel>, and
+ <guilabel>Pager</guilabel>. Select from among them to
+ determine which four telephone numbers to display at any given
+ time. Of course, these connected times mean that people often
+ have more than four telephone numbers. You can display only
+ four in the editor, but <application>Evolution</application>
+ can remember them all for you. When you click the little
+ square button for the list of labels, any that you've already
+ filled in will be marked. </para>
