Generic parser for simple file format for keeping notes on some data items.
This file format is a simple format that can be used for multiple purposes to manually store and edit notes on some simple data items.
The format consists of a list of entries, each described by a finite set of fields, and accompanied by a chunk of arbitrary description text; here is an example:
- field1, field2, field3, field4, ... Arbitrary description text (indented).
The components can be quoted with double-quotes. The number of fields is not fixed, it can vary between entries. Lines starting with # are ignored as comments. Also note that the initial '-' character can be anything.
