Manually editing the datafile #8

Open timothywongej opened 2 years ago

Currently, if manual edits to the datafile are made which are incorrect, the program restarts with a blank contact list. However, this is not warned to the user.

Subsequently, if the user accidentally adds a new person, the entire timetable.json file is updated and reset, losing all data.

It is clearly warned to the users in the UG that manual edits that are in the wrong format will result in data being wiped.

"subsequently... adds a new person: If you already triggered a reset after editing the data file wrongly, then it doesn't matter what you do afterwards, the data has already wiped.
