Yeah, I wouldn't put that as anything I'd work on unless you had spare time
on your hands...if they export ini-compliant, it's up to the scripter to not
break that.

...and with that, I'm guessing ignore anything before the FIRST colon would
apply, right? So you can still have commandlist names with "Menu: Files"
([1:Menu: Files])

I wouldn't see a reason to interpret anything, except to identify when that
changes, and know that it's a second CommandList. It's all just creating
items in a commandlist, and having a section for each commandlist to show
properties.

I'm unclear where multiple [Properties] would be used/needed in any one
commandlist...am I missing something?

IMO : as looks like more of a division character, and at the start looks
more organized. =)
