  29   wxFileConfig derives from base Config and implements file based config class,
  30   i.e. it uses ASCII disk files to store the information. These files are
  31   alternatively called INI, .conf or .rc in the documentation. They are
  32   organized in groups or sections, which can nest (i.e. a group contains
  33   subgroups, which contain their own subgroups &c). Each group has some
  34   number of entries, which are "key = value" pairs. More precisely, the format
  35   is:
  36
  37   # comments are allowed after either ';' or '#' (Win/UNIX standard)
  38
  39   # blank lines (as above) are ignored
  40
  41   # global entries are members of special (no name) top group
  42   written_for = Windows
  43   platform    = Linux
  44
  45   # the start of the group 'Foo'
  46   [Foo]                           # may put comments like this also
  47   # following 3 lines are entries
  48   key = value
  49   another_key = "  strings with spaces in the beginning should be quoted, \
  50                    otherwise the spaces are lost"
  51   last_key = but you don't have to put " normally (nor quote them, like here)
  52
  53   # subgroup of the group 'Foo'
  54   # (order is not important, only the name is: separator is '/', as in paths)
  55   [Foo/Bar]
  56   # entries prefixed with "!" are immutable, i.e. can't be changed if they are
  57   # set in the system-wide config file
  58   !special_key = value
  59   bar_entry = whatever
  60
  61   [Foo/Bar/Fubar]   # depth is (theoretically :-) unlimited
  62   # may have the same name as key in another section
  63   bar_entry = whatever not
  64
  65   You have {read/write/delete}Entry functions (guess what they do) and also
  66   setCurrentPath to select current group. enum{Subgroups/Entries} allow you
  67   to get all entries in the config file (in the current group). Finally,
  68   flush() writes immediately all changed entries to disk (otherwise it would
  69   be done automatically in dtor)
  70
  71   wxFileConfig manages not less than 2 config files for each program: global
  72   and local (or system and user if you prefer). Entries are read from both of
  73   them and the local entries override the global ones unless the latter is
  74   immutable (prefixed with '!') in which case a warning message is generated
  75   and local value is ignored. Of course, the changes are always written to local
  76   file only.
  77
  78   The names of these files can be specified in a number of ways. First of all,
  79   you can use the standard convention: using the ctor which takes 'strAppName'
  80   parameter will probably be sufficient for 90% of cases. If, for whatever
  81   reason you wish to use the files with some other names, you can always use the
  82   second ctor.
  83
  84   wxFileConfig also may automatically expand the values of environment variables
  85   in the entries it reads: for example, if you have an entry
  86     score_file = $HOME/.score
  87   a call to Read(&str, "score_file") will return a complete path to .score file
  88   unless the expansion was previously disabled with SetExpandEnvVars(false) call
  89   (it's on by default, the current status can be retrieved with
  90    IsExpandingEnvVars function).
