asciiparse

Parse a particular format of ascii-art numbers

Installation and Usage

First, make sure Leiningen is installed. Then you can run the parser with lein run. The first argument should be the name of an input file in the correct format. The second argument may be an output file to write the formatted data to. If no output file is specified, the formatted data will be written to standard out.

The testdata folder contains some example inputs.

git clone https://github.com/joshhead/asciiparse.git
cd asciiparse
lein run testdata/wellformed.txt
