"""
A simple parser for configuration files in ini-style.

The main difference to other simple ini-parsers is, that it does not
write the whole structure into the file, but only the changed values.
Thus it keeps comments and structuring of the file.

    DELIMITER : string[]
        list of delimiters allowed

    COMMENT : string []
        comment marks allowed

    TRUE

        Currently supported are the values (case insensitive): true, 1, on, wahr, ja, yes.

    FALSE
        Regular expression for all FALSE values allowed.
        Currently supported are the values (case insensitive): false, 0, off, falsch, nein, no.

    SECTION
        Regular expression allowing the recognition of a section header.

    EXPRESSION
        Regular expression defining a normal option-value pair.
