i think that would be a nice option for my post-processing script. if i get time, ill work on doing things like that.

but, in my opinion, the main app shouldnt add anything at all. it does one thing, fast and very reliably. {i think it should be bug fixes and performance tweaks only}


if you just want to get this done real quick, you can still use my script as-is.

it sorts by contact, and sorts each contact by time. you can do that, then modify the contact file directly. {just find the last text you want, and remove everything above it}.

then join them back together, delete all, and import. {with e.g. '50 years ago' instead of '30 days ago' to get them all; that should be a command line option, not hardcoded in the file. sorry!}
