Alluding to the current freepascal list thread about "Directory Tree"...
I wonder if there is some simple way to visually display, edit and save configuration data that contain settings, which are structured like ini files with sections and items?
I am porting an application written in Delphi (hence only for Windows) into Lazarus on Linux. The config data from the registry are displayed in a multi-level tree, much like how the Windows Registry Editor displays the reg data.
The multi-level registry stuff is not so easy to transfer into an ini structured conf file so I am going to flatten it out by having one level of sections and naming them such that the relations are apparent.
Rather than creating something from scratch I would like to know if there are some existing controls I can use in Lazarus where I ideally could just load the control from file and save to file too. And of course edit the name/value pairs easily.
The Lazarus Tool/Options displays a similarly looking dialog if the right hand panes are replaced by simple lists of name/value pairs....
Any suggestions?
