If a data structure requires more children then you should add a new node under `DEFINITION` and reference that node from it's parent. In other words, an aggregate node can't itself have child nodes that are aggregate.<br/>

`count`, `size`, `type` and `condition` attributes can reference a child node of the `DEFINITION` node. To do that, you should use `self::TAG`.<br/>
the tag names of the nodes that are on the same level should be unique. The `name` attribute of the nodes on the same level need to be unique as well.<br/>
-tags, needless to say, should follow the naming convention for naming XML nodes. The `name` attributes should follow the C identifier naming convention(if the value of the `name` attribute is invalid in C as as identifier you're going to end up with code that won't even build).<br/>
+The order of the nodes that appear as children of the `DEFINITION` node, even when the child nodes are referencing each other, is unimportant to faultreiber.<br/>

+For string nodes, the node should either have a non-empty `size` attribute or have a `delimiter` attribute. In case a `delimiter` attribute is selected the value of the delimiter should be provided as the value of the `delimiter` attribute to the node.<br/>
+Strings read through a `delimiter` node will have their delimiter attached to the end of the string(null-terminated or otherwise). String reads that have a `size` attribute will be forcefully null-terminated even if the original string was not null-terminated.<br/>
+
+Child nodes of `READ` node that have the `unordered` attribute set, will be regarded as such, meaning they can appear in the file sporaically. Such nodes will have to have a child node with attriute `sign`.The value of the sign attribute is used to check for the presence of the parent node in the file.<br/>
+`unorderedbegin` and `unorderedend` attributes denote the begenning and end of an unordered section in the `READ` node. For every unordered section, only one node needs to define the begin and end attributes. All the other nodes, including the nodes that define the `unorderedbegin` and `unorderedend` attributes, shall have the `unordered` attribute defined.<br/>
+Any child of the `READ` node that is not inside an unordered block or doesnt have the `unordered` attribute set, will be regarded as ordered.<br/>
+
Whether `int128` or `uint128` are defined depends on your the C implementation you are using on your host. If 128-bit integers are not supported or you need to read in bigger integers, you can simply use a smaller int type and increase the `count` attribute accordingly.<br/>
The `FT::conditional` tag for a type means that the actual content of the node will depend on a value. The attribute `condition` will provide what that condition is. The value for the condition should be provided as text for the different nodes that define what the actual contents should be.<br/>
-A node referencing another node as the value of its `type` attribute is insensitive to the order in which the nodes appear under their parent node, `DEFINITION`.<br/>
`size` attribute is currently only meaningful when the `type` attribute is set as `string` in which case it denotes the size of the string.<br/>
