While the comparison method to be created would benefit from being able to fall back onto the default implementation, it can't do so as these default methods are private to libfyaml and are not exposed. Solution: make them available as a public interface

That is, it will put `t` or `f` into results. However, this is inconsistent with the rest of the YAML file where booleans are denoted standard YAML scalars for booleans. Solution: use `true` and `false` values for booleans This solution is not yet perfect because the comparison will not work correctly for different variations of the boolean scalars in YAML. Fixing this will require implementing custom comparator and this hinges on being able to (ideally) reuse the standard comparison algorithms with boolean comparison on top of it. I've previously sent a PR: pantoniou/libfyaml#85 but it wasn't merged yet.

@pantoniou have you had a chance to look at this, what do you think? |

Actually, I think there's an easier solution: just exposing I will send a separate PR. |
