-Minetest mod metatools
-######################
-
-A mod inspired by mgl512's itemframe issue
-Version : 1.2.2
-
-# Authors
- - LeMagnesium / Mg / ElectronLibre : Source code writer
- - Paly2 / Palige : Contributor for the source code
- - Ataron : Texture creater
-
-# Purpose
-This mod's aim is to provide a way for admins to navigate through any (ok, not
-ignores) nodes on the map, and see values of its metadatas at any of their
-stratum.
-
-# Media
-"metatools_stick.png" by Ataron (CC-BY-NC-SA)
-
-# Todo
- - Rewrite the table stocking : a variable containing a copy of the global
-   table returned by :to_table(), on which we would work, and a save command to
-   apply it on the node
-
-# Special thanks
- - mgl512 (Le_Docteur) for its locked itemframe which gave me the idea of a tool
-allowing to see/edit metadatas
- - Ataron who created the stick's texture
- - palige who agreed to test the mod for its first release, and contributed to the last version
-
-# Command tutorial
- - Soon to come, please refer to /meta help until then
-
- Node metadatas look like this :
-
-			0	1		2		3		...
-			Node/
-				|
-				+- 		fields
-				|		|
-				|		+-		foo
-				|		+-		bar
-				|		+-		...
-				+-		inventory

+# Minetest mod metatools
+
+Get everything possible* about a node just by clicking it with metatools:stick!
+
+## Differences in Poikilos' fork:
+This is a hard fork oriented around getting information without typing any commands.
+- All known* metadata is shown on click! There is no need for various commands to traverse the tree, though the original chat command code is intact.
+- Click a node and get its inventory.
+- Click an entity and list the entire LuaEntitySOA tree!
+  - See the "[Minetest API Notes](minetest-api-notes)" section below.
+- The texture is redone so that doesn't any longer have an invasive and inappropriate CC-BY-NC-SA license from the upstream version of metatools.
+
+`*` All metadata where how to obtain it is known by the maintainer of this repo (except where there is an open issue).
+
+
+## Authors
+Code:
+- 2015-2016 LeMagnesium/Mg/ElectronLibre and Paly2/Palige (mod inspired by mgl512's itemframe issue)
+- 2017-2022 Poikilos (Poikilos' fork of Version 1.2.2)
+
+Textures:
+- 2022 Poikilos (redone "metatools_stick.png" *replaces one with invasive and inappropriate CC-BY-NC-SA license [old texture was by Ataron]*)
+
+
+## Purpose
+This mod's aim is to provide a way for admins to navigate through any (ok, not
+ignores) nodes on the map, and see values of its metadatas at any of their
+stratum.
+
+
+## Install
+- Copy the repo folder containing init.lua to your Minetest mods folder (The resulting folder should be mods/metatools/).
+- Enable the mod for the world.
+- You can remove the "projects" folder to lighten the "game" if necessary (Keeping the png is useful but only for documentation--Nothing in "projects" is used by the mod code).
+
+
+## Special thanks
+- mgl512 (Le_Docteur) for its locked itemframe which gave me the idea of a tool
+  allowing to see/edit metadatas
+- Ataron who created the stick's texture
+- palige who agreed to test the mod for its first release, and contributed to the last version
+
+
+## Use
+- After following the "Install" steps above, open the world in Minetest.
+- Type `/grantme all`
+- Type `/giveme metatools:stick`
+
+The chat commands from https://github.com/Lymkwi/minetest-mod-metatools are still present but usually not necessary:
+- Type `/meta help` to see instructions on chat commands.
+
+
+## Development
+
+### Minetest API Notes
+
+#### Entity Metadata
+The magic sauce to get the entire LuaEntitySOA of a pointed_thing was finally discovered by accident (when researching unrelated API feature(s)) after no one would/could answer my question:
+```Lua
+local pointedObjRef = pointed_thing.ref;
+-- . . . some other code is here, then ...
+local luaEntity = pointedObjRef:get_luaentity();
+```
+
+#### Node metadata
+![Node has fields and inventory; there are main and craft inventories, where each is a sequential table where each entry is an itemstack](projects/node_metadata.png)
+
+```
+Node
+|
++-fields
+| |
+| +-foo
+| +-bar
+| +-...
++-inventory
+  |
+  +-main
+  | |
+  | +-1
+  | +-2
+  | +-3
+  | +-...
+  +-craft
+  | |
+  | +-1
+  | +-2
+  | +-3
+  | +-...
+    +-...
