## TextFileGo
Thread Safe Text File Line by Line Rotation Package with INI State Management
---
Easy to use library to rotate through lines in text files. You can pick up wherever you left off using INI files to store the line number pointer. Must use \*.txt files for now. No tests yet. Can expand it/clean it up if anyone wants me to.
Works by loading all files in a directory into a struct.
```
var txts *textfiles.Files
// initialize your text files from directory
txts = &textfiles.Files{}
err := txts.Init("/my-text-files/")
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
return
}
// will get next line for /my-text-files/filename.txt
// params for the Next function are (filename, roundRobin)
// if you don't want it to round robin, the result will return an empty string
// you can use this to know it's finished
fmt.Printf("displaying line from filename: %s\n", txts.Next("filename", false))
// reset pointer
txts.ResetPointer("filename")
```
