README for cliapp

cliapp is a Python framework for Unix-like command line programs. The scaffoling to set up a command line parser, open each input file, read each line of input, etc, is the same in each program. Only the logic of what to do with each line differs.

See the API documentation on the doc subdirectory for details (or see http://code.liw.fi/cliapp/docs/ for a pre-formatted version).

Example

See the files example.py and example2.py for examples of how to use the framework.
