    to handle them.

    Example of different properties:
    - Section (group) names are not case sensitive;
    - option names are case sensitive (like options in command line);
    - Only the '=' character is used to separate options with values;
    - By default, options without value are supported;
    - Only the '#' comment can start in the middle of a line;
    - Values can be optionally enclose within single or double quotation marks,
      which is useful if the value contains a '#' comment character;
    - specific escape sequences are supported;
    - there is no special 'default' section with precedence over other
      sections;
    - Specific directives are supported (!include and !includedir) to include
      configurations from other files.
