Crate lineio

LineIO is a light-weight line-by-line input library, with the ability to skip over lines that begin with a hash mark, or that are blank.

As part of my research, I deal with a lot of input files that have data organized by line, and with intermixed blank lines and comments. Rather than rebuilding a parser input each time, the functionality is wrapped up in the crate.

There are also convenience functions to turn a line into either a vector of floating point numbers, or a vector of usize, i32, or u32.

While the library is called LineIO, it currently only handles input.

You can use this as follows:

use lineio::LineIO;
 
fn main() {
   let mut lineio = LineIO::new(&"test.txt".to_string());
   let s = lineio.getline().unwrap();
    println!("Read {}", s);
}
