+Introduction
+============
+
+A library capable of loading a tree (a forest, actually) from a file. This tree is meant to be human-readable, with a free (as long as it is consistent) indentation style.
+
+Simtree format
+===============
+
+A Simtree must be organized in such a way that every child is one indentation deeper than its parent, and all siblings have the same indentation.
+The String used for indentation is inferred from the first indentation depth.
+The entire first line (except the newline character) represents the beginning of a comment.
+
+Example file:
+
+	#
+	A
+		B
+		C
+	D
+		E
+			F
+				G
+	H
