β¨ VCARD2PAL π
okay bestie, welcome to the vcard2pal manual page (it lives in the General Commands Manual section, section 1, iykyk) πΈ
π¦ NAME π¦
vcard2pal β convert vcard contacts into a pal calendar file
like. that's the whole job. that's the assignment. and it ate. π
π SYNOPSIS π
vcard2pal [filenames ...]
π DESCRIPTION π
vcard2pal is a small awk script, and the way that a tiny little script can just convert vcard contacts into a calendar file for the pal calendar program?? obsessed. genuinely. it's giving main character energy for a script that's like, twelve lines long. π«Ά
β USAGE β
Using vcard2pal is really simple, bestie, because it doesn't have any options. no flags, no -h, no --help, nothing. zero. a whole vibe. β¨
You feed it some vcard formatted contacts β either on stdin, or you give it the filenames of files which it should read β and then you put the output of the script into a file which you then give to pal.
And because vcard2pal needs no interactive input, you can also call it from cron or a makefile to always have an uptodate pal file generated from your contacts. lowkey iconic. automation queen π
π BUGS π
