General ini File Formatting Rules

The ini file must adhere to the following formatting rules:

■

The ini file name must not include hyphens "-" or spaces; if necessary, use an underscore "_" instead.

■

Lines beginning with a semi-colon ";" are ignored. These can be used for adding remarks in the ini file.

■

A carriage return (i.e., Enter) must be done at the end of each line.

■

The number of spaces before and after the equals sign "=" is irrelevant.

■

Subsection names for grouping parameters are optional.

■

If there is a syntax error in the parameter name, the value is ignored.

■

Syntax errors in the parameter's value can cause unexpected errors (parameters may be set to the incorrect values).

■

Parameter string values that denote file names (e.g., CallProgressTonesFileName) must be enclosed with inverted commas, e.g., CallProgressTonesFileName = 'cpt_usa.dat'.

■

The parameter name is not case-sensitive.

■

The parameter value is not case-sensitive, except for coder names.

■

The ini file must end with at least one carriage return.
