as of now the order in the .csv file is like this:
2013-06-12 16:28:59,Unknown (0x658),
00x80,
$80 Clear,
0xa4d5010ca0bbdb0900,
0xfff,
Standard MFID (pre-2001),
00x1,
and keeps repeating this order as long as HUDs are coming in. i am
unsure why the date/time is on the same line as NAC? Oh and i have not
tested yet with the '\n' newline command out of the if statement. If i
have to i can modify the C++ code but was hoping not to have to do that
at this stage. the C++ is used for what is computationally intense and
the Python is used mainly for the UI. Any idea of a way to write the
pickle to file to see what it contains? because it is not explicit in
the C++ files, at least not as far as I can tell as of yet.
Thanks!
