Specifications

What is a .ini file?

INI is an informal configuration format organizing key-value pairs under bracketed section headers, with comment lines and no strict standard. Parsing details like comment characters, quoting, and nesting vary between implementations. It is a long-standing choice for simple application and system configuration.

How to use this file

Use an example INI file to test section and key-value parsing, comment handling, and configuration loaders that must tolerate dialect differences.
