SYNOPSIS

package foo;
use Meta::Info::Vcard qw();
my($object)=Meta::Info::Vcard->new();
my($result)=$object->method();

DESCRIPTION

This object is here to encapsulate Vcard type data. It is still not complete in that it only contains stuff that I know about that is present in Vcard.

Here is how I got to know the Vcard status: I filled out a full cards in netscape and evolution and saved them as Vcards and got the format from there.

Services that this class provides: 0. parsing of text of a vcard and populating the object. 1. direct manipulatio of the objects fields. 2. writing of the object in VCARD type format. 3. reading and writing of the object in my own XML/DTD type format. 4. sending the object via sms to GSM type phones using GSM::SMS and others. 5. conversion of this object to various other formats.
