-;;; Usage:
+;;
+;;; Basic Usage:
;;
;; You may want to back up existing data in ~/.bbdb and ~/.emacs.d/bbdb in case
;; you don't like the newly imported data.
;;
;; Simply M-x `bbdb-csv-import-buffer' or `bbdb-csv-import-file'.
;; When called interactively, they prompt for file or buffer arguments.
-;;
+
+;;; Advanced usage / notes:
;; Tested to work with thunderbird, gmail, linkedin, outlook.com/hotmail.com For
;; those programs, if it's exporter has an option of what kind of csv format,
;; choose it's own native format if available, if not, choose an outlook
-;; compatible format. If you're exporting from some other program, and its csv
+;; compatible format. If you're exporting from some other program and its csv
;; exporter claims outlook compatibility, there is a good chance it will work
;; out of the box.
;;
;; If things don't work, you can probably fix it with a custom field mapping
;; variable. It should not be too hard. Use the existing tables as an
-;; example. By default, we use a combination of all predefined mappings, and
-;; look for every known field, but it is probably best to avoid that kind of
-;; table when setting up your own as it is an unnecessary complexity in this
-;; case. If you have a problem with data from a supported export program, start
+;; example. By default, we use a combination of most predefined mappings, and
+;; look for all of their fields, but it is probably best to avoid that kind of
+;; table when setting up your own as it is an unnecessary complexity in that
+;; case. If you have a problem with data from a supported export program, start
;; by testing its specific mapping table instead of the combined one. Here is a
-;; handy template to set each of the predefined mapping tables:
+;; handy template to set each of the predefined mapping tables if you would

;;
;; In addition to the examples, the doc string for `bbdb-create-internal' may
;; also be useful. Please send any new mapping tables to the maintainer listed
;; - bbdb doesn't work if you delete the bbdb database file in
;; the middle of an emacs session. If you want to empty the current bbdb database,
