SR3data

The goal of this project is to open up and make generally available the data from the venerable NSRCG character generator for Shadowrun 3rd Edition. The data for that program was all bespoke data formats, mostly pipe delimited, but also... not? This is just a bunch of python code to parse the files and output a bunch of json. Hopefully, the json can then be used as the basis for VTT modules that want to use this SR3 data.

The main script is parse_data.py so just run that. I'll include a poetry project file if you want to use that, I guess. Otherwise, just python parse_data.py and it will dump the json into an output directory. I am committing the current output in case people just want the resultant data without having to worry about the python script. Currently, the dependencies are pretty simple (re and json).

In terms of licensing, I tried to track down the last maintainer of NSRCG, and looks like the hotmail address (mcmackie@hotmail.com) is just no longer monitored or something.
