`osrelease` is a Go module implementing a slightly pedantic parser for the

os-release file format, as specified in

[os-release(5)](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/os-release.html).

This implementation actually _parses_ quoted assignment values for escape

sequences in _correct sequence_, instead of simply doing blind

search-and-replaces (which can result in unexpected results).

Oh, and this module has _tests_.

There's a reason why we call it the "_pedantic_" parser after all.

## Usage

Simply get the OS identification variables using `osrelease.New()`. That's all.

```go

package main

import "github.com/thediveo/osrelease"

func main() {

    vars := osrelease.New()

    for name, value := range vars {

        println(name, "=", value)

    }

}

```
