triggerTime precision

[ferdymercury]

Hello, thanks for this package!

I see that the triggerTime is rounded to 'centiseconds'. Is there a reason why this is done?

Could there maybe be a setting to specify the precision when querying the trigger time, rather having it hard-coded to .2f in https://github.com/bennomeier/leCroyParser/blob/master/lecroyparser/__init__.py#L193 ?

Thanks!

(For the moment, as a workaround, I use the C++ version that returns the full trigger-time struct with the seconds as double precision: https://igit.ific.uv.es/ferhue/lecroyparser)

I'd say this can be increased. Do you know how much is stored in the binary file and how much precision makes sense?

[ferdymercury]

The binary file stores the number of seconds with double (floating) precision. I'd say it would belpful to let the user configure the number of digits when constructing the class. {.Nf}

Hi, apologies for the wait. I did add said option to the corresponding routine. Does that work for you?

[ferdymercury]

Thanks a lot! Could you 'forward' the variable also here? https://github.com/bennomeier/leCroyParser/blob/57920d8bdd33ccd655b721ca1b47e6885798c1d6/lecroyparser/__init__.py#L27

(passing then the value to the parseFile and parseData functions, and finally to https://github.com/bennomeier/leCroyParser/blob/57920d8bdd33ccd655b721ca1b47e6885798c1d6/lecroyparser/__init__.py#L125)

So that it can be specified directly from the constructor function.

Just this once :-)

Thanks so much!
