Completed Paid on delivery

Program a script to extract text strings from local files.

I will provide a "rule file" that gives the beginning and the end of the area that needs to be extracted.

e.g. Input text: "Texttexttext ... text <br abc>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod > Texttexttext ... text <"

Rule file begin of extraction: <br abc>

Rule file end of extraction: eirmod >

Result (text inbetween): "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy"

- input file is .txt or html

- result file is csv (tab separated)

- input will be one large single file with multiple datasets) or path to folder with single files

- must be able to handle large number of files (multiple threads)

- general settings: rule for return separator (replace returns with special character), input and output path (should be remembered), character for start of new dataset; if folder pathway is given certain files have to be ignored (identification by the name of the file)

- exlusionfile: if pathway to folder is given, all files with these strings in the name have to be ignored.

- columns might be missing in individual datasets

- must be running on Windows PC
