Conserve IV 1.4b Beta

Another bug release, with minor bug fixes and expansions to the file format.

Changelog

This heralds the introduction of the proper YAML parser for data files, which requires a change in the data format. Old files (versions 0.3 and earlier) are still read by the old parser but will be saved in the new (1.0) format.

• Numerous refactorings in the file reading procedures, including an improved file format detctor and new parser, allowing variable indentation depths, order and appearance of blocks.
• Several of the example files were line-wrapped incorrectly at some point, leading to errors when loading. Note that the raw tree format does not allow linebreaks in the middle of names of numbers. As a rule, linebreaks are treated as blank characters and thus can only occur where blanks will occur.
• Some manual updates have been made.
• Better loading error messages

Unresolved or potential issues

• Documentation for some of the new features is still coming.
• Some errors are being caught but not reported correctly.
