# edicat: Print and transform EDI
## Why?
EDI often does not include newlines which makes it incompatible with
normal UNIX tools that operate on a line-by-line basis. So we do some
simple detection of the segment terminator and append newlines as required.
## Install
```
pip3 install -U edicat
```
## Usage
```shell
$ edicat --help
usage: edicat [-n] [filenames [filenames ...]]
Print and concatenate EDI.
positional arguments:
filenames Filename(s) or - for stdin
optional arguments:
-n, --lineno Number the output lines, starting at 1.
```
## Examples
Simple cat:
```shell
$ cat edi850_sample.txt

## Run tests
```
python3 -m unittest
```
## Known Issues:
* `cat /path/* | edicat` won't work with documents that are mixed spec/separators (stdin has no hints as to file boundary).
* Workarounds:
* `edicat /path/*.edi`
* `find /path/ -name '*.edi' | xargs edicat`
* No TRADACOMS support
* No HL7 support
