I use them to make sandwiches all the time! Seriously, arrays are for pansies.

Ini's make cheating much more tempting. And I hate having my Windows folder cluttered with ini files from games I deleted long ago.
Especially when they have 'clever' names like veryimportant.dll.

I prefer to use Assarrays instead of ini.
Ini fails.

You can tell them to be in any folder you know, not just windows.

Each save file in gridquest currently takes up about 800kb of .ini's.
I'm aiming for ~1 MB once its fully finished

I know that, but quite a few other people don't.

Also 20kb for a single INI file is also pretty big.

I actually use arrays 99% of the time. Ini's aren't as useful as arrays in several ways, especially if you're trying to make a Crono Trigger style ally movement.

Well, not like arrays are bulletproof either. Even ones that are supposed to ENCODE everything automatically.. I had somebody do some weird stuff to Hasslevania's file, the bastard haha.
