1.7.6

Yaml XML macro extended to have attributes and CDATA in the output when you design a Yaml, especially for XML.

Unclosed macro opening character reported line number is correct after a bug fixed that reported the last opened macro line number.

phantom parameters are handled correctly in case a macro does not have a parameter but there are zero string resulting macros evaluated in the parameters
InputHandler got a new startWith method
ScriptBasic module was reintegrated, following the release and is now part of the release
it is possible to define a user defined macro default which is used in case a macro is not defined. The real good use of it is when the user defined macro is defined using Java support and has special logic.
