NAME¶
2vcard - convert addressbooks to VCARD format
SYNOPSIS¶
2vcard [
-F | -f | -h | -v ] [
-i FILE ] [
-o FILE ]
DESCRIPTION¶
2vcard is a little perl script to convert an addressbook to the popular
VCARD file format. Currently,
2vcard can convert addressbooks and alias
files from the following formats:
abook,
eudora,
juno,
ldif,
mutt,
mh and
pine.
The VCARD format is used by
gnomecard, for example, which, in turn is
used by the
balsa email client.
USAGE¶
Per default,
2vcard reads from
stdin and writes to
stdout.
Alternatively, the input- and output-files can be specified as command-line
options.
