Bug Description

gtkpod has the great feature of allowing to keep in sync your evolution contacts and your ipod, but this is very carefully hidden from the end-user.

Actually, in order to achieve that, you should:

1) "discover" the existance of the scripts under /usr/share/gtkpod/scripts
2) start gtkpod, open the preferences/tools tab, insert "/usr/share/gtkpod/scripts/sync-evolution.sh -d /usr/lib/evolution/2.4" in the appropriate textfield.

Both steps are very obscure to a novice user.

I propose that there should be a default settings that does so, and possibly some "advertisement" of this functionality.
