.contact parser

===============

This is a parser for Microsofts `.contact` format to bring contacts to a proper standardized format.

I think many programs do the same job already but I didn't find a comfortable solution.

 - json

Contribute

----------

 - **Currently only Python3 is supported**. If you need python2, please contribute. I think there is not much to change.

 - Currently there are not many fields supported. Please contribute to make this tool even mightier.

 - Currently only csv and json export is supported. One could also implement vcard export.
