28/*
29Implement "KiCad s-expression" support for boost::property_tree's ptree, the 8
30bit string version of property_tree. The ram resident structure of the ptree is
31mostly compatible with one created using the xml_parser from
32boost::property_tree, with slight differences in the way atoms are stored. The
33result is you can use Format() to convert from xml to s-expression, but not the
34other way around. You can write a simple s-expression beautifier in just a few
35lines of code.
36
37The main value however is the s-expression parser, i.e. Scan(), which is an
38alternative to crafting a custom recursive descent parser for a particular
39grammar. The tipping point depends on whether you want to read only a small
40portion of a much larger document. If so, then using the ptree will likely be a
41"faster to code" route. Documentation on how to navigate a ptree can be found on
42the boost website and there are a number of examples in the
43pcbnew/pcb_io_eagle.cpp file in this project. Powerful path navigation support
44makes it easy to extract a subset of a ptree.
