Just installed balsa on my Manjaro Linux system. 1. When I ask for the help screens, by pressing F1 or using the drop down menu, the help file cannot be found. I'd love to find a list of shortcuts.
That seems likely to be a packaging bug. Balsa uses the yelp system to manage its help files, and yelp-build (provided by the yelp-tools package) must be installed for the files to be built. That's for the packager to handle, not you, unless you want to build from source.
2. I want to use gnomecard for my addresses, as suggested in the documentation, but it isn't part of the Manjaro repository. Can I install this on my own?
Balsa can work with several address-book formats, of which VCARD is the simplest. Gnomecard is (was?) a utility for managing VCARD address books, but you don't need it to use a VCARD address book with Balsa. Best, Peter
