Types
# Format

"name" : {
"type": type, # Types specified below with arguments
...
}

"intExample" : {
"type": "int", # Set int type
"byte": 1 # Set max int size to 1 byte (int8)
}

"stringExample" : {
"type": "string", # Set string type
"maxlen": 1 # Set max size of string ( the max size of the string is calculated by (2^(8*n)-1). if n is 1 then the max size is 255) (optional defaults to 2)
}

"bytesExample" : {
"type": "bytes", # Set bytes type
"maxlen": 1 # Set max size of string ( the max size of the string is calculated by (2^(8*n)-1). if n is 1 then the max size is 255) (optional defaults to 2)
}

"dirExample" : {
"type": "dir", # Set dir type
"subdirs": {} # A dictionary of int, string and byte types in the format above.
}

"boolExample" : {
"type" : "bool" # Set bool type
}

"listExample" : {
"type" : "list", # Set list type
"subtype": "int", # Set list contents type to an "int"
"maxlen": 1 # The "maxlen" parameter for bytes or str (for "int" maxlen is still used instead of "byte")
}

Don't put a dir in another dir. It won't work
