The dialogue is duplicating and, as I tried on BRICK & STEEL screenplay, there appears to be a dialogue from the previous heading (it appears to be always the last dialogue from previous heading) creeping/printing onto the next heading.. |

The parser as it existed, gave you an HTML output from the fountain.io format. This is good, but it's not technically a parser so much as a transcoder. Consuming the output programmatically was not possible (not easily at least.)
This change keeps the original parse function renamed to parseToHtml.
It adds a new function called parseToJson which parses the file into a javascript object graph. This allows programmatic access to elements of the script such as dialog, characters, scenes, transitions, etc.
I believe this will be very handy for future users.
