I needed a way to convert .ics calendar files (from iCal) to .vcs calendar file format. Why? Because many mobile phones' built-in calendars can only import .vcs files, not .ics files. I eventually found a solution.

First install Mozilla Sunbird, and then install the .vcs Support 0.6.2 add-on. Once installed, you'll be able to export your iCal calendar in .ics mode, then import that file in Sunbird, and finally, export it as a .vcs file.

At that point, your exported calendar is ready to be imported onto your phone.
