Ah yes, INI files. We love them. We hate them. We cannot escape them. Originally made popular by Windows, INI files are everywhere including in Samba[www.samba.org] and Trac[trac.edgewall.org]. This gem has one goal: make INI file, structure, and stream manipulation as fast, safe, and simple as possible. We take a modal approach with a pluggable parser class.
