New release adds multiple file support, saving output

New release!
Version 2.0 allows you to select as many files as you want in the file chooser, and the contacts will be seamlessly parsed from all of them. Muliple file selections are noted in the text of the top button as the number of files and the directory they are in. It also limits you to choosing vCard files (.vcf); however, if you have a file in that format that has a different or no extension, you can click the drop-down box at the bottom of the chooser window and select 'All Files', which will allow you to select any file.
Also added is the ability to save the plain text output of the program as well as copy it, in the form of a quite obvious button at the bottom of the screen; clicking this button will give you a save dialog where you can choose where to save your file and what to call it.
Some other improvements are added as well, such as the status being displayed in the main window during parsing, and the number of contacts parsed being displayed in the text of the top button.
The Mac native app and Java Web Start version have not been uploaded for this version yet, but I will put them up whenever I get a chance. I hope to create a Windows native app eventually as well, but for now you can run the .jar file on any system with Java installed.
I am aware that some things from contacts may not appear as of now, especially things marked as 'other' or with no classification; I will fix this as soon as I get a chance.
