This program can be used for strict validation and parsing of vCards. It currently supports vCard 3.0 (RFC 2426).

Additional scripts:

• format-TEL.sh - Format phone numbers according to national standards
• split.sh - Split a multiple vCards file into individual files
• sort-lines.sh - Sort vCard property lines according to a custom key
• join-lines.sh - Join previously split vCard lines
• split-lines.sh - Split long vCard lines

If your system uses Python 3 as the system Python, you'll have to install pip2 and use that instead of pip below.

sudo pip install --upgrade vcard
