Yes I also looked into this, I closed the file less than 60sec later -
because I started having headache.
I don't understand what this diff means - do you mean how it should be or is
it something from the history of the file?

Thank you - you speak out some of my thoughts. I also think I have tested
the above, but not sure anymore.

I'm not sure if I understand this well. fromLatin1 means I use iso-8859, but
I use utf8. It is also obvious that the input (item) is received in utf8. I
had different experience when using TQString::fromLatin1 ()

Yes, you are correct again, however time constrains and frustration
prevented me doing this as I have to clean the test code from older tests,
I commented out. I add now something, however I was disappointed that
output of the test program was different to what I saw in the AddressBook.
Perhaps because you have to convert the addressee back and this makes the
original problem right somewhere in the converter.

Find attached the code and compile like this

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/opt/trinity/lib/pkgconfig \
        g++ `pkg-config --cflags tqt` -I/opt/trinity/include \
            `pkg-config --libs tqt` -L/opt/trinity/lib \
        -ltdecore -ltdeabc std-test.cc -o std-abreader

To check the result in the address book you have to uncomment the write and
save lines and also cleanup tdeabc lock and cache files prior to executing.
I had a very bad experience with those already

rm -f ~/.trinity/share/apps/tdeabc/lock/*.trinity_share_apps_tdeabc_std.vcf*
\
        ~/.trinity/share/apps/tdeabc/std.vcf__*
