Add .proto spec. for output format #29

@ariddell The easiest writer for me to write would just dump delimited output to a file (as in binary with a specific format). Is there something else I should do? Is there a Python-compatible FIFO or something like that? I guess I could also output JSON just as an intermediary.

How about jsonlines, http://jsonlines.org/ -- it's just newline delimited json. Will that work?

Sure, that's the easiest thing you could've picked. On Jan 26, 2016 2:07 PM, "Allen Riddell" notifications@github.com wrote:

Modified to-do, the writer spec had me confused---you need multiple writers with protobuf because the goal is to formalize a little, rather than just dump text into protobuf wholesale.

Writers (real there are multiple for different purposes) are a separate issue.
