21 * Module name: params
23 * -------------------------------------------------------------------------- **
25 * This module performs lexical analysis and initial parsing of a
26 * Windows-like parameter file. It recognizes and handles four token
27 * types: section-name, parameter-name, parameter-value, and
28 * end-of-file. Comments and line continuation are handled
29 * internally.
31 * The entry point to the module is function pm_process(). This
32 * function opens the source file, calls the Parse() function to parse
33 * the input, and then closes the file when either the EOF is reached
34 * or a fatal error is encountered.
36 * A sample parameter file might look like this:
38 * [section one]
39 * parameter one = value string
40 * parameter two = another value
41 * [section two]
42 * new parameter = some value or t'other
44 * The parameter file is divided into sections by section headers:
45 * section names enclosed in square brackets (eg. [section one]).
46 * Each section contains parameter lines, each of which consist of a
47 * parameter name and value delimited by an equal sign. Roughly, the
48 * syntax is:
50 * <file> :== { <section> } EOF
52 * <section> :== <section header> { <parameter line> }
54 * <section header> :== '[' NAME ']'
56 * <parameter line> :== NAME '=' VALUE '\n'
58 * Blank lines and comment lines are ignored. Comment lines are lines
59 * beginning with either a semicolon (';') or a pound sign ('#').
61 * All whitespace in section names and parameter names is compressed
62 * to single spaces. Leading and trailing whitespace is stipped from
63 * both names and values.
65 * Only the first equals sign in a parameter line is significant.
66 * Parameter values may contain equals signs, square brackets and
67 * semicolons. Internal whitespace is retained in parameter values,
68 * with the exception of the '\r' character, which is stripped for
69 * historic reasons. Parameter names may not start with a left square
70 * bracket, an equal sign, a pound sign, or a semicolon, because these
71 * are used to identify other tokens.
