Module ini_proc 

INI / CFG file processor with [section] awareness.

Handles Windows/Unix INI-style configuration files:

[section]
key = value
key: value
; semicolon comment
# hash comment

Key Paths

Field rules use dot notation combining section and key:

• "database.host" — matches key host in section [database]
• "*" — matches all key=value pairs in all sections
• "global_key" — matches a key before any section header (global scope)

Formatting Preservation

• Section headers [section] are preserved verbatim.
• # and ; comment lines are preserved verbatim.
• Blank lines are preserved.
• Leading whitespace in value is stripped; quoting is not applied.
• Inline comments (key = value ; comment) are stripped and NOT written back to avoid leaking sensitive context in comments.
• Both key = value and key: value assignment operators are handled.
