INI Files
*********

Also know as initialisation files.  These are in some cases used to store
translations.

.. _ini#conformance:

Conformance
===========

The toolkit uses `iniparse <http://code.google.com/p/iniparse/>`_, an INI file
parser that preserves layout and follows the .ini format as supported by the
Python language.

.. _ini#dialects:

Dialects
--------

The format supports two dialects:

* default: standard iniparse handling of INI files
* inno: follows `Inno <http://www.innosetup.com/files/istrans/>`_ escaping
  conventions
