+/** This function starts an empty model. It does this by parsing the
+ \c new.ged
+ file in the data directory of the library (\c $PREFIX/share/gedcom-parse).
+ This can be used to start from an empty model, and to build up the model
+ by adding new records yourself.
+
+ \retval 0 on success
+ \retval nonzero on errors (mainly the errors from
+ \ref gedcom_parse_file()).
