I am attempting to export my abook address book using abook --generate, but no matter what combination of flags I use with it, it never finishes. I've tried abook --convert --outfile "~/test.txt", abook --convert --outformat mutt, and abook --convert --outformat mutt --outfile "~/test.txt" and all have the same behavior where the command just runs forever and never stops or outputs anything. Screenshot is attached as well. I've tried this with a fresh abook addressbook and the same problem is happening no matter what data I try to export.

    Sorry, wrong title. I meant --convert and I don't see how to edit the title or original post.

    Default input is stdin (which make a process waiting for an input)

    • You can pass your file to stdin using <.
    • Alternatively, you can specify it using --infile
