This library serves as a base set of code that all Black Rook projects use. The code and classes contained herein may be used outside of the library in pieces - the entirety of this library does not need to be distributed together, nor do all of the contained methods in each class need to be included - this is meant to be a set of files to alleviate coding headaches that are otherwise not especially covered by Java's main libraries.
End users are encouraged to pick and choose, mix and match.
A lot of "commons" libraries are bulky and they can become a big dependency if all of it is included. In encouraging users to copy what they want piece-by-piece (and having a license that does not necessarily prohibit it), this not only eliminates the size problem, but reduces the overhead of using a larger library.
Contained in this release is a series of classes that should be used for common functions. The javadocs contain basic outlines of each package's contents.
