Sorry I think I was not clear enough
You can configure services in kontact and in the kweather applet. You need the
ICAO of the region. Look here for the ICAO code
http://www.nws.noaa.gov/tg/siteloc.shtml
There are two tags in the kweather applet (not kontact) configuration, one is
Display and the other is Weather services. In weather services you have to
add the ICAO codes for all the places you want weather information. If you
have the "CVS version" of kweather you get a menu where you can chose. If not
you have to look for the ICAO at the above link.
In display you have to put the ICAO code of the place the applet is gonna
monitor. In kontact you get a sumary of all weather services you select. Not
sure but I belive the one you put in Display has to be also in weather
services.
About the vcar thing, you can't import a directory. What I meant was that you
create a file (text file) and put in there the content of all the vcards you
want to import. vcards are text files. Then import that single file that
contains all the vcards. Not tried it but I think it works.
