Usage

Usage of cutlist:
  -extra string
        Comma-delimited list of existing stock boards to attempt to use first.
  -f string
        Read from a file instead of stdin.
  -kerf string

Example

# -stock indicates the length of new boards
# -extra indicates existing boards to be used up first if possible
cutlist -stock 8ft -extra 7ft,7ft,8ft,8ft -f cuts.txt

Input

Input is one length per line, optionaly with a xN multiplier where N is the quantity needed of that size.

7.7cm x8
9cm x4
1m x4
1.8/2m x4

Multiple dimensions on the same line will be added:

1ft 3" will be interpreted as 15 inches/38.1cm.

You can use fractions with any unit:

1/4in
1/2m
1.8/2m

Output

It will attempt to minimize waste and use extra boards first.

Currently output cannot be rounded and units are fixed to cm.

Board #1 (Length: 243cm, Waste: 0.36cm)
  100cm
  90cm
