Alan: I will likely follow your syntax but with one caveat: I understand that real ini syntax demands that section names be unique, but I have not implemented error checks for it and to do so would be more work than I want to do for now. So to implement your suggest prefix of n: for sections, I would simply ignore any thing before a colon in a section name. Since I am not going to attempt to interpret the numbers, I still need the list section or someway to show the start of a new list. So it would be something like: [1:List} name= [1:Properties] format=... [1:1] ... [1:2] ... [2:List] name= Some possible alternatives: 1. Insist on exactly 1 Properties section per list which must be at start (right now, multiple [Properties] are allowed. Would not need [List] then. Comments? 2. Which do people prefer as separator a. : or - [1-Properties] or [1:Properties] b. start or end [Properties-1] or [1:Properties] >> > Also, by adding H: and S:, there is really no need for > three commands *Configure ImportCL / ImportHot / ImportSched > > Instead a single command *Configure Import filespec > would deal appropriately with any of the current three types > of inifile -- and would later be able to cope with a combined > type of file. This means I have to read the file and start interpreting it before deciding how to process, which complicates my implementation. I'll save this for a future release for sure. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Make a clean sweep of pop-up ads. Yahoo! Companion Toolbar.
