Detailed Description

Helper class for programming an ASCII-file parser.

The ASCIIParser assists in writing an ASCII file parser:

• Opens/closes file,
• skips comments (number sign),
• removes leading and trainling white space from lines,
• extracts parameter and value from "parameter=value" lines.
