A pair of questions about config .ini file

Post by tumbleweed »

Is there any way to wirte comments? The classic ';' as escape char does not work for me

Is it possible to use a pointer to a second ini file from a general config.ini files?
Something like

scummvm.ini
***********

[mytarget]
config_file=myTarget.ini


myTarget.ini
************

[myTarget]
gameid=...
description=...
path=..
savepath=..

Thank you for helping me!

EDIT: Sorry, I think this post should be in Help and Support area, but I don't lnow how to move it :$

"#" should work for comments.

No, that's not supported.
