ManiaPlanet style Swift parser

Hello,
I started a Swift Maniaplanet style formatter. Inputs a string, returns a NSAttributedString for style usage on labels and more.
I will use the framework myself in the Maniaplanet Toolkit in later versions for faster parsing of styles. Currently it's using the NSAttributedString HTML parser that is very slow (because it uses webviews on the background, and because of that it isn't threadable, needs to be on main/ui thread).
Code: Select all
let nickname = "$F80$i$S$oToffe$z$06FSmurf $z$n$l[http://goo.gl/y4M9VK][App]$l"
let styledNickname = MPFormatter().parse(nickname).getAttributedString()
Will result in
Install and usage instructions are in the github readme.md.

The github master is updated to Swift 1.2 for the new XCode (and Swift) support.
(Build is still failing at travis because of the lack of support for the new xcode at travis).

Its used in the ManiaPlanet toolkit app for iOS. To display the server names and the nicknames of the players. Also used for making links, and colors in news items.
And working great.
