        Overview
        ********
        
        RIOS.CONVERSION is a `Python`_ package that supports 
        converting research instruments in various formats 
        to and from `RIOS`_ data structures.
        
        The following command line programs have been implemented.
        
        - redcap-rios
        
          Converts a REDCap Data Dictionary in csv format to 
          a RIOS Instrument, Form, and CalculationSet 
          in JSON or YAML format.
        
        - rios-redcap
        
          Converts a RIOS Instrument, Form, and CalculationSet 
          to a REDCap Data Dictionary in csv format.
          
        - qualtrics-rios
        
          Converts a Qualtrics qsf file to a RIOS Instrument and Form
          in JSON or YAML format.
        
        - rios-qualtrics
        
          Converts a RIOS Instrument, Form, and CalculationSet 
          to a Qualtrics text file in Simple .TXT format.
          
        Run each program's help to see its 
        required arguments and available options::
        
          <program> --help
        
        The question order, text, and associated enumerations, 
        are all converted correctly; however the converted expressions
        used for "calculated fields" and "skip logic", as well as the display
        niceties of section breaks and separators will most likely require 
        some "tweaking" because the various systems model pages, events and actions 
        differently.
        
        For example a RIOS calculation is an expression applied to an assessment,
        independently of the data collection, while a REDCap "calculated field"
        is a read-only field which evaluates its expression and displays the result
        during data collection.
