For the patent data files, based on the existing documentation, it looks like PatentParser, found in McNair/Software/Scripts/Patent, has to be run on each xml file that was downloaded and unzipped during the previous step.
(For future updates to the perl files, we should update this script so that it can be run on a directory of files like the parser for USPTO assignment data).
*It then stores the parsed xml files all in a text file called "Results.txt" (which I assume will have to be deleted afterward). This script utilizes the Claim.pm, Inventor.pm, PatentApplication.pm, and Loader.pm modules.
*It no longer uses the AddressBook.pm module.
