        XCSoar flight analysis tools
        
        
        Contents
        --------
        
        AnalyseFlight
          The AnalyseFlight tool will run an IGC file through the XCSoar flight
          analysis engine and return the results in JSON format. It expects the path
          to the IGC file as a command line parameter and returns its output on stdout.
        
        FlightPath
          The FlightPath utility reads an IGC file and extracts the relevant
          information into an easily parsable format including the seconds since
          midnight, location, altitude and engine noise level. Like AnalyseFlight it
          also expects the IGC filename on the command line and returns its output on
          stdout.
        
        XCSoar python package
          The XCSoar python package contains python wrapper for the above utilities.
          Import the ``xcsoar`` package to take advantage of the ``flight_path`` and
          ``analyse_flight`` functions.
        
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        You can install the XCSoar tools like any other python script by calling
        ``python setup.py install``. It will automatically compile the tools and
        install them to an appropriate location.
        
        You will most likely need to install a few of XCSoar's build dependencies.
        On a standard Ubuntu machine calling ``apt-get install make
        libcurl4-openssl-dev`` should get you started. Please read the XCSoar
        documentation if there are more libraries missing.
