\description{
This function includes improvements to the \code{read.crn} function from the
\pkg{dplR} library. The principle changes are better parsing of metadata, and support
for the Schweingruber-type Tucson format. Chronologies that are unable to be read
are reported to the user. This function automatically recognizes Schweingruber-type files.
}
\details{
This wraps two other functions: \code{\link{read_crn_metadata}} \code{\link{read_crn_data}}.
