        This script will read all TXT files in a directory and output their contents to a single, well-formatted 
	CSV for analysis in various software. The output TXT files are in a proprietary format which provide the 
	user with useful information when printed, but is not formatted well for analysis. The output CSV file 
	will be able to be used to better identify trends and potential issues during normal operation of the 
	Tuttnauer Elara11 Sterilizer.

        Example:         Tuttnauer_Parser.py

            -i --input {PATH to TXT file directory}

            [-o --output {PATH to OUTPUT DIRECTORY}]
