DESCRIPTION

The ConfigFile class

...

Note

Currently the configfile is supported in the ini-file style.

sections

In this style, the entries can be placed in sections (and subsections). Sections are placed in [ and ] parens. This looks like the following:

 [section]

 [Section subsection]

entries

The single entries are described in the form entry = value. Single-lined entries as well as multiple-lined entries are supported. They look like the following examples:

 entry = value
 entry = "value1 value2"
 entry = <<EOF
 value1
 value2
 value3
 EOF

comments

Comments are always on a separate line. They start with a # or ;. Some examples:

 # This is a comment
 ; This is a comment too
 no_comment = # no comment
