Whee! Best to view full.
This is the new components format, thoughtfully provided by Oebele. Rather than providing everything in giant lines, it provides bundles of line items. The great thing about this format is the user-readability - You can actually tell how to edit any particular object to create your desired effect.
It's also quite flexible - The line spacings here have no meaning. The only things that matter are the brackets around large groups, the colons before values, and the line breaks. Everything else is optional formatting.
I believe there was some talk of eventually bundling this format under a BSD license for wider distribution - It's a bit like json or yaml, but lighter and more human-readable.
Cheers!

Haha good stuff! Will make my life a lot easier making components :D
Better than that - Soon I intend to implement the monolithic components file as a directory of multiple components files. Thus, each mod can have its own components text file, making creating installing component mods a breeze.
Cheers!
That was something I've been hoping for for a while now! That'll be great.
