	/**
	 * conversion
	 *
	 * Conversions enable you to change / adapt the content of each _record field for your needs.
	 * General syntax is: pattern1 |> replacement1 || ... || patternN |> replacementN
	 * If the pattern-part of a pair is ommited it will match everything ('^.*$'), which
	 * is only usefull for the last pair, as they are worked from left to right.
	 * Example: 1|>private||public
	 * This will translate a '1' in the _record field to 'privat' and everything else to 'public'.
	 *
	 * In addintion to the fields assign by the pattern of the reg.exp.
	 * you can use all other _record fields, with the syntax |[FIELDINDEX].
	 * Example:
	 * Your record is:
	 * 		array( 0 => Company, 1 => NFamily, 2 => NGiven
	 * Your conversion string for field 0 (Company):
	 * 		.+|>|[0]: |[1], |[2]|||[1], |[2]
	 * This constructs something like
	 * 		Company: FamilyName, GivenName or FamilyName, GivenName if 'Company' is empty.
	 *
	 * Moreover the following helper functions can be used:
	 * cat(Cat1,...,CatN) returns a (','-separated) list with the cat_id's. If a
	 * category isn't found, it will be automaticaly added.
	 *
	 * account(name) returns an account ID, if found in the system
	 * list(sep, data, index) lets you explode a field on sep, then select just one part (index)
	 *
	 * Patterns as well as the replacement can be regular expressions (the replacement is done
	 * via str_replace).
	 *
