Tilde Terminal Toolkit
libt3config
The libt3config library provides functions for reading and writing simple structured configuration files. libt3config provides the following features:
- Simple structured syntax.
- Simple API for reading and manipulating configurations.
- Parsed configurations use typed data (boolean, integer, floating point number string, list, section).
- Schema definitions, allowing verification of the structure of loaded configuration data.
- No use of global variables, allowing easy use in threaded programs (with the exception that if uselocale is not available, setlocale should not be called at the same time in another thread while reading or writing configuration data).
