Configuration file syntax
The configuration files usually consist of one or more config statements, so-called
sections with one or more option statements defining the actual values.
Below is an example of a simple configuration file.
package 'example'
config 'example' 'test'
option 'string' 'some value'
option 'boolean' '1'
list 'collection' 'first item'
list 'collection' 'second item'
The config
'example' 'test'
statement defines the start of a section with the type
example and the name test. There can also be so-called anonymous sections with only a
type, but no name identifier. The type is important for the processing programs to
decide how to treat the enclosed options.
