I would probably use the fileIO Xtra that comes with Director.
There is a readme file for this xtra that describes all its functions at:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/director/ts/documents/tn3177.html
This is for the 5.01 version, but as far as I know, it is still current.
A search for fileio returns lots of good info at Macromedia's support site too:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/director/
There's an article called "Fun with FileIO" on the DOUG site at:
http://www.director-online.com/accessArticle2.cfm?id=320
There are several fileIO related behaviors posted at MediaMacros at:
http://www.mediamacros.com
For an INI approach, here's an article that covers both projector and Shockwave
environments:
"INI and preferences file reader/writer"

I'm sure I've missed several other resources out there, but basically, any site
related to Director most likely has information on fileIO.
