Hi Ravers!
This is the INI.LIBRARY
Release Version 2.0
I-WANT-TO-BE-FREE-WARE
written by Gerson Kurz
Nov.21,1993
The ini.library was written to give the amiga user a more consistent
configuration file format, and programmers a much easier way of
storing config or project information on disks.
Most programs have config files to store global settings and such.
These files have all different structures people in the real world
(the users) cannot examine or understand; and, worse yet, often differ
from version to version. We all know the hassle with those 'old->new'
configuration file converters...With the ini.library this changes: you
have access to a standardized ini file format known from other
operating systems such as unix, windows and so on; it allows
you to save your config stuff much easier (less code), and it
enables the user to read and even modify configuration data with
a simple text editor (or, a wide-range field for unemployed PD
programmers: using an INI editor)
As the ini.library is I-WANT-TO-BE-FREE-WARE you are ENCOURAGED to
use it - its free of charge! (go ahead, do it!) and it offers much
more comfort to your applications. PD dealers, diskmags, everyone,
I'd like you to push'n'hype the ini.library ;-).
See ini.manual for more information,
ini.doc for complete AutoDocs-format function description
