        ``self.cols``.

        This class requires that the Header class will have defined ``col.start``
        and ``col.end`` for each column.  The reference to the ``header.cols`` gets
        put in the splitter object by the base Reader.read() function just in time
        for splitting data lines by a ``data`` object.

        Note that the ``start`` and ``end`` positions are defined in the pythonic
        style so line[start:end] is the desired substring for a column.  This splitter
        class does not have a hook for ``process_lines`` since that is generally not
        useful for fixed-width input.
