-Structure of entry:
-[keytype][key]:[valuetype][val]
-Types:
-	B - bool
-		-> 0=false, 1=true
-    S - string
-		-> see below
-    N - number
-		-> thing compatible with tonumber()
-Table:
-[keytype][key]:T
-... content is nested in table until the matching
-E
-
-example:
-LUA_SER v=1		{
-Skey:Svalue			key = "value",
-N1:Seins			[1] = "eins",
-B1:T				[true] = {
-Sa:Sb					a = "b",
-Sc:B0					c = false,
-E					}
-E				}
-
-String representations:
-In strings the following characters are escaped by &
-'&' -> '&&'
-(line break) -> '&n'
-(CR) -> '&r'			--> required?
-':' -> '&:'
-All other characters are unchanged as they bear no special meaning.
