Description:

Now you can write your very own books in Starbound, for all your note-taking needs!
Visit your nearest InfinityExpress for a guide on how to get started.

This mod adds a simple crafting station at which you will be able to write your own books from within the game and even share them with your friends (provided they too have the mod installed).
For now there is only one book cover type, but I do plan to add more soon. Also this should work just fine on a multiplayer server, provided both client and server have the mod installed. If you run into any issues, refer to the notes below or let me know via a comment.

NOTES
======

Overall I hope you enjoy this mod, but since it is still a work in progress, here are a few things you might need to know:

* It is likely that you will run into occasional glitches with the cursor in
the editor. In this case, just close and reopen the editor, I am working on fixing most of these.

* When you open the editor, you can’t open your inventory with "I", so you have
to open your inventory via the button in the sidebar to put paper in.

* If you _do not_ use an english keyboard, certain keys WILL NOT work, I
recommend using the paste function to paste any arbitrary text into your book, including text with special characters.

* In multiplayer, ideally only one person would use the "Writing Stand" at a
time, but obviously, you can have multiple of these.

* The ingame guidebook should tell you everything else you need.

* I am aware of a few issues that I will fix over the next coming days.
