IniFile handles Windows type INI files with section names in square brackets, and assignments of the form: item=string.

Syntax:

INIFILE filename [section] item=string -change or write
INIFILE filename [section] item= -remove item
INIFILE filename [section] item== -clear item
INIFILE filename [section] /remove -remove entire section
INIFILE filename [section] item > temp.bat -read item
INIFILE filename [section] > temp.bat -read all items of section

Items and sections are generated if not found. The INI file must exist.

Reading an assignment sends a SET statement to STDOUT, which can be redirected to a temporary batch file, or processed with a FOR /F construct.
