Recipe data
The data of an individual recipe consists of variables, information blocks, notes and a change history.
A recipe consists of several data blocks. The variables and the information block are mandatory, the notes and the change history are optional.
The buffer status is not directly part of the recipe data, but is also managed in the recipe buffer at runtime.
The variables, notes and change history are saved in the so-called recipe buffer (see below). This can then be saved completely in a recipe file.
The variable values can be written from the recipe buffer to the process.
