)

guid  String
The unique identifier.

Set this to true, if there is only one header of level1, which is the parent of all other text.

Remarks

Background:

To bring the files in a version control system, it is not appropriate to simply numerate the files - then with every new section the numbers and thus the file names would change.

We cound have used the guid created by the titles, but this would make the file names hard to identify.

Thus we compromise: use the three first letters of the titles of max three levels, and then append some part of the guid.
