general/inifiles - INI file utilities
- Provides verbs to read from and write to INI files or strings in INI file format.
- Uses regex functionality built into J and is therefore usable on all platforms (not reliant on the Windows API).
Provides similar functionality to that provided by Windows API PrivateProfile functions (e.g. GetPrivateProfileStringA) and more.
- Verbs can source the INI information from a file stored on disk, or a string that might have been read from a zip file or a database.
- Verbs support array arguments for retrieving, updating or writing multiple INI keys at once.
- An INI key can be returned as a string or interpreted as a numeric or boxed list.
