Description: fideparser
        ===========
        
        fideparser is a script to parse `FIDE Ratings website`_ and export the data
        of the rated tournaments and their arbiters into another formats (currently
        csv, json and an internally pickle-based format)
        
        This scripts relies on `screen-scrapping`_ so if FIDE changes the HTML
        the script will break :S
        
        I intend to mantain this script, at least once a year to export data of the
        previous year, so I will keep an eye on the FIDE site and try to fix the bugs.
        
        Feel free to fork and ask for pull-requests. If you find any issue, use
        `the issue tracker in GitHub`_.
        
        Install and use
        ===================
        
        Install using 'easy_install fideparser' or 'pip install fideparser'.
        A script named 'export_fide_tournaments' will be created in your
        bin directory in your path.
        
        Run 'export_fide_tournaments -h' to know about the needed parameters.
        
        This script has been tested with Python 2.7 in a Linux environment.
        Windows platform is untested and I have no plan to test it. Patches welcomed.
