[tor-talk] Is there a known tool/script for analyzing the Tor consensus files?

[Griffin Boyce]

Hey Virgil,

   The answer depends on what you'd like to do with consensus files.  
There was (is?) a GSoC project by Daniel Marti in furtherance of 
proposal 140 [2][1], but that's probably not what you're looking for.

   There's also a script by Moritz Bartl that analyzes consensus files 
and turns them into a KML[3]

   I might be able to give you a better answer if you can give relevant 
details.

   Also, AFAIK, collecTor is just the website [4].

best,
Griffin
