Hi Ed, I tried to have a look at the code to try to implement what we discussed concerning the generic format... However, I'm a bit confused and would prefer to let you do it...
Is that right for you ? Thanks for proposing me to implement this, but I'm still not an expert in python and algorithmics and this seems a bit too much for me right now...
