Welcome to INI Editor
Ini
Files are plain ASCII files. Windows provide special support for them through
the 32-bit API. We only support 32-bit API functions because Hackman is pure
32-bit program. An INI file consists of two parts, the sections and the keys
that may have values. Here's an example of an INI file:
| [Colors] |
This is a
section |
| border= |
A key without
value |
| ink=yellow |
A key with
string value (yellow) |
| [Advanced_Settings] |
Another section |
| splash=1 |
A key with
numeric value (1) |
