Import, edit and export DBC files
I am looking for a way to programmatically edit and save .dbc files that are meant for J1939 CAN communication. I have a few large files that need to be compared/edited.

Being able to import, edit and export DBC files in a program could greatly speed this up.

There is a neat [.NET DBC file parser](https://github.com/EFeru/DbcParser) on git that imports the DBC file and gives you all the data you need, unfortunately this library cannot export the data back to DBC.

So basically I am looking for a library that can create DBC files from data.
