v.8.1:
Hello again, new version is here! From last release, I have tried to massively improve the readability of my code, it's still WIP but I think it's getting there. The gains should mostly come from search and bug fixes.

Although I didn't want to release now, I have less and less free time nowadays, so I figured I could release and worry about improving Clover some other time.

As per usual, have fun and let me know about any potential bugs!
