• parse_quality() assigns an uncertainty of 90 degrees to X-ranked stress data in the 2025 WSM version.
• NEW: calculate shortest distance to plate boundary (which is not always the best choice! see function description for details.)
• major bug fix in est.kappa(): converts to directional data by doubling the angles
• calculating circular mode in circular_summary() now optional due to performance issues
• some weighting parameters in stress2grid() have been renamed to me more alike with {gstat}
