There are different kinds of INI files, and they don't have to be flat. For example you could do multiple, nested sections by doing something like: [path:to:my:section] Hashes can easily be done with INI files, since a hash is just a key=value affair. As for arrays, I don't see why you can't have something like variable=array Where array is formatted anyway you want (albeit on a single line). -------------------- BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ The opinions expressed in this message are the responsibility of their author.
