Taking another crack at merging contacts.

This time, I realized that the VCF format is MUCH easier to parse than csv.

I've already got a simple bash script to break up each contact into a separate file and identify the name based on the N: or FN: field.

Further work will be needed to intelligently integrate the data.

If I get this working, it's SO gonna be open sourced for all to use. XD
