A series of python subroutines to read and extract information from the STAR format mfout file generated by the program ModelFree.
Unlike the BMRB STAR format, the format used by ModelFree uses the data_name field, rather than the save_name field and also allows nested loops. (The mfout file has loops nested to a depth of two only).
The mfoutparser/examples directory contains a demonstration Jupyter notebook and sample input and output files. The notebook can be viewed (non-interactively) on GitHub here.
The interactive demo can also be run live in the web browser by clicking here: 
mfoutparser --> examples --> MFparser_demo.ipynb.
Once mfoutparser has been installed, the examples directory can be copied to the current path using the following shell command:
python -c 'import mfoutparser as mf; mf.copy_examples()'
mfoutparser has been tested on python 2.7, 3.4, and 3.5. It requires the numpy (tested on version 1.10.1) and pandas (version >= 0.17.1) libraries. IPython/Jupyter notebook (version >= 3.2.1) is required to run the demonstration notebook located in the examples directory. Matplotlib is required if plotting of the data is desired.
mfoutparser can be installed with the conda and pip package managers or using python's setuptools. See the installation instructions for more information.
