Documentation

We’re exporting the documentation to “readthedocs”. Until then, the source code is a very good place (and the only one) to get the documentation. We’ll upload the docs as soon as we can.

Authors

harvester was written by Blazaid with help from Davyria.

Thanks

To you.

Warning

It has been developed with only python 3.X in mind, so it won’t probably work on lower versions (i.e. no python 2.X support).

Second warning

English included in both this document and the code can be devastating for the brain of an average human being. Even so we, the poor developers, are working hard to write as correctly as possible and learn along the way. The documentation will be updated as we improve our language proficency as well as we receive critical / suggestions for this.
