A plugin to call contacts via Sipgate directly from the Mac OS X Address Book

With this Address Book Plugin installed, you can call any contact via Sipgate VoIP calls directly from the Address Book application.

Installation of the pre-packaged Plugin

• Mac OS X 10.6 (I use 10.6.7 and it works. Please let me know if you have trouble with any other release of 10.6).

Installation

Get SipgateClickToDial.bundle.zip from the downloads section, unpack it and move the bundle to the folder ~/Library/Address Book Plug-Ins/. You can open this folder in Finder by entering open ~/Library/"Address Book Plug-Ins" on the command line.
