/// Represents an ini- or cfg-like configuration file

///
/// This class tries its best to preserve the formatting of configuration files.
/// Changing a value will keep the line it appears in intact. The parser also takes
/// as much data from a line as it can - anything to the left of an equals sign
/// becomes the name, anything to the right (excluding comments) becomes the value.
///
///
/// To access the contents of a configuration file, simply parse it and use it like
/// you would any other settings store:
///
///
///
/// // # Settings.ini
/// // message = hello world ; the usual...
/// // show message = true
/// ISettingsStore settings;
/// using(var reader = new StreamReader("settings.ini")) {
/// settings = ConfigurationFile.Parse(reader);
/// }
///
/// if(settings.Get<bool>(null, "show message")) {
/// Console.WriteLine(settings.Get<string>(null, "message"));
/// }
///

///
/// It's usually a good idea to keep an application and all of its required files
/// together, whether it's code or data, but platforms often have their own conventions:
///
///
///
/// Operating System
/// Convention
///
///
/// Linux
///
/// System-wide configuration goes into /etc/<appname>/, user-specific
/// configuration goes into ~/.<appname>/ while static configuration that is
/// known at build time resides with the application in /opt/<appname>/
///
///
///
/// Windows
///
/// System-wide configuration goes into %ProgramData%, user-specific configuration
/// has no real place (try %AppData%/<appname>/ if you want to hide it from
/// the user, %UserProfile%/Documents/<appname> if the user should see it)
/// and static configuration resides with your application
/// in %ProgramFiles%/<appname>/.
///
///
///
/// MacOS

/// System-wide configuration goes into /etc/<appname>/, user-specific
/// configuration goes into /Users/<username>/.<appname>/ while static
