1.9.5 alpha 2 (in preparation)

edit
  • Source code reorganisation to prepare for automated testing.
  • Documentation transitioned from Wikibooks to Markdown into the code tree (docs/manual.adoc).
  • https access to NCBI web services like pubmed

This version is yet not stable enough for professional work.
