README and HowTo

[SimoneRichetti]

Hi,
i have some rtcm3 messages in binary format and i'm trying to find a way for reading their contents. It would be really helpful if you could write a short readme on how to use your decoder for reading rtcm3 logs. Thanks!

I will be on a plane for a long time on Saturday, I can do it then. Good software development practice would of course had had me do first :-)

Greetings @SimoneRichetti
I may in the meantime be able to assist.
A quick question so to understand your intention.
Currently you have a file containing RTCM3 messages / data.
Is it your intention to read the individual messages / encoded data, or the recorded location / path that data describes ?
This project is for you if its about the former.
If you are using a Unix/Linux system, you can decode the demo file RTCM3.bin that is delivered with RTCM3 project by issuing the command:
cat RTCM3.bin | python RTCM3_Decode.py
Please let us know if this clarifies or you need additional information.

Thanks a lot @ccmsi! In the meantime I looked at the code and simply commented lines about reading from stdin and decommented lines about reading from file, but every time i have to change the name of the log file in the code. Your solution is way smarter :)
