If you are running under Windows and you don't want to use the Windows
API, you should not use *.ini file names. Windows assumes that you
won't muck with ini files except through the Windows API's. These
should be off-limits to homegrown code going around the Windows APIs
just like the registry is, because the Windows APIs link the two
concepts in arbitrary ways. Besides that, the suggestions that Ada
could have something like java properties are pretty good.
