 The library provides `Reader` type and two constructors for it.
 
 Common constructor `NewReader` gets opened file (`io.Reader`) and log format (`string`) as argumets. format is in form os nginx `log_format` string.

 As I said above this library is primary for nginx access log parsing, but it can be configured to parse any other format. `NewReader` accepts `format` argument, it will be transformed to regular expression and used for log line by line parsing. Format is nginx-like, here is example
 
 	`$remote_addr [$time_local] "$request"`
-	
+
 It should contain variables inn form `$name`. The regular expression will be created using this string format representation
 
 	`^(?P<remote_addr>[^ ]+) \[(?P<time_local>[^]]+)\] "(?P<request>[^"]+)"$`
-	
-If log line does not match this format, the `Reader.Read` returns an `error`. Otherwise you will get the record of type `map[string][string]` with `remote_addr`, `time_local` and `request` keys filled with parsed values.
