+"""
+in Python 3.10 the parser module has been removed. some old nodes 
+(namely: formula.py / formula2.py / profile_mk2.py) make light use of that module.
+
+The main goal of this module is to suppress a startup import exception caused by 
+the missing parser module, and at the same time offer the basic features of that
+module as used by these nodes.
