This function reads '.ini' files. These are text file databases that are organized in [sections] containing pairs of "name = value".
readIniFile(filename, token='=', commenttoken=';', aslist=FALSE, case)Character. Filename of the .ini file
Character. The character that separates the "name" (variable name) from the "value"
Character. This token and everything that follows on the same line is considered a 'comment' that is not for machine consumption and is ignored in processing
Logical. Should the values be returned as a list
A n*3 matrix of characters with columns: section, name, value; or a list if aslist=TRUE.
This function allows for using inistrings that have "=" as part of a value (but the token cannot be part of the 'name' of a variable!). Sections can be missing.
