wxCONFIG\_USE\_GLOBAL\_FILE. The style interpretation depends on the config
-class and is ignored by some. For wxFileConfig, these styles determine whether
-a local or global config file is created or used. If the flag is present but

-parameter is present but the style flag not, the relevant flag will be added

-use relative instead of absolute paths. For wxFileConfig, you can also
-add wxCONFIG\_USE\_NO\_ESCAPE\_CHARACTERS which will turn off character
-escaping for the values of entries stored in the config file: for example
-a {\it foo} key with some backslash characters will be stored as {\tt foo=C:$\backslash$mydir} instead
-of the usual storage of {\tt foo=C:$\backslash\backslash$mydir}.
-For wxRegConfig, this flag refers to HKLM, and provides read-only access.

The wxCONFIG\_USE\_NO\_ESCAPE\_CHARACTERS style can be helpful if your config
