+
+  WHAT IT DOES
+       This python script will convert an Evolution vCard into a Sylpheed
+       address book.
+
+  HOW TO USE IT
+       (You must run sylpheed at least once before running this script.)
+
+       If Sylpheed is running, close it.
+       From the command line, execute the following:
+
+               vcard2xml.py source_file [destination_file]
+ 
+       When only <source_file> is specified it will overwrite (and
+       create a backup of) the existing addressbook. 
+       When both arguments are suplied it will create a new additional 
+       addressbook named as <destination_file>.
+       If the script encounters an error it will attempt to roll back
+       the changes and restore the original files.

+  
+  HOW TO USE IT
+  
+       Exit Sylpheed if running.
