- -----------------------------------
- The config file works like this:
-
- line#1: contains the word 'begincfg'
- line#2: [[drive:]\path\]filename of the input file to be scanned
- line#3: [[drive:]\path\]filename of the output file (if the output file
- already exists, it will be appended to)
- line#4: beginning string to look for in the input file. everything between
- this string, and the ending string listed on line #6 will be
- written to the output file.
- line#5: should the output file include the line where the beginning string
- was found? (yes/no)
- line#6: ending string
- line#7: should the output file include the line where the ending string was
- found? (yes/no)
- line#8: contains either the keyword 'first' or 'all'. if 'first', getex
- will only write to the output file the first occurance of the set
- of lines between the beginning and ending strings. if 'all', getex
- will write all occurances to the output file.
- line#9: contains the word 'endcfg', nothing in the config file after this
- means anything, so you can keep comments below this line.

- Enjoy!
