Overview

This library allows the C programmer parse "ini" files for specific data.
The ini files are expected to look like Window's ini files.  i.e.


[name]
data=1
debug=yes

[name2]
port=2


etc.

The user merely passes the filename, bracketed name, and the data name.
The function will return the data to the right of the equal sign.  The data
is returned as a character string.  However, for numeric data, the character
string can be parsed using sscanf (C function) to read in the appropriate
numeric data.

I have enclosed a Small (ini_s.lib), Medium (ini_m.lib), and Large (ini.l.lib)
Libraries along with a header file and a sample program.


These libraries are donated to the CompuServe subscribers who have assisted
me in the past...  Anyone may use these libs as they see fit.

The Libs were compiled under MSC V 6.0

The Test program was compiled using:

        cl /c /AS test.c

Linked using
        link test.c,,,ini_s,,


Enjoy the libs!
