To whomever feels responsible for casr
I found a bug in casr. Empty strings were saved as data{} (in ascii format) but
cannot be restored. The fix below stores empty strings as data{""}.
There are still other issues: It is not possible to restore a string that
contains a quote (") or that ends with a backslash (\). Both result in syntax
errors. Restoring a string that contains special characters like äöü sometimes
hangs up carestore.
Best regards,
Dirk
