> Read fixed width metadata from external files

> Key: METAMODEL-247

> Project: Apache MetaModel

>
> With the introduction of METAMODEL-244 I suggest we add capability to add a
> few helper utilities that allow reading fixed width file metadata from
> external sources. I am currently aware of two types of sources that are good
> to support:
> * SAS format file definition.
> * SAS INPUT definitions.
> I am sure there are more commonly used ways of specifying the fixed width
> file metadata, but this will give us a start and we can add from there.
