#
# parseini --- parses 'ini' style configuration files.
#
# Usage:
# awk -f parseini S=<section> P=<param> <ini file>
#
# if section is an empty string, then we use the default section
#
# example ini file:
#
# fruit = apple
# fruit = pear
# multiline = this is a multiline \
# parameter
#
# # this is a comment
#
# [colors]
# red = yes
# green = no
# blue = maybe
#
# [ocean]
# fish = red
# fish = blue
#
# example usage:
# > awk -f parseini S=ocean P=fish testfile.ini
# would return:
# red
# blue
