I Was looking for a program that converts a DPGL data to CSV (or popular one like that) on python. and I have found this Great one. But there is no useful readme. Could you tell me how to use this one, please.

Depends on what you want to do. For HPGL, the code is in hpgl.py. You can call hpgl.parse_hpgl with a file name, file object, or BytesIO object and it will parse the HPGL format and return a list of paths. This can be passed to hpgl.generate_svg, which returns a string containing an SVG image (XML format). Not sure what you need as output; but you'll probably want to do something with the path data from parse_hpgl.
