parse-ply
=========
A streaming PLY parser written in JavaScript.

Usages
======
First, install using npm:

npm install parse-ply

Then you can create a stream using require. For example, here is some code that parses a PLY file from stdin and dumps the result to stdout:

process.stdin.pipe(require("parse-ply")()).on("data", function(ply) {
console.log(ply);
});

The properties within the file are all encoded as appropriate typed arrays.

require("parse-ply")()
------------------------
This creates a streaming PLY parser. To use it, pipe in a stream containing your mesh. When it is done, it will emit a data event that has the parsed PLY file as the main argument.
