1 Introduction

Many programs keep their configurations in files with hierarchical structure. Such files normally define sections, which keep logically separated blocks of statements. These statements may in turn contain subsections, and so on. On the lowest level of hierarchy are simple statements, which normally define some basic configuration settings.

Quite often a need arises to parse such files outside of their owner program. For example, one may need to retrieve some configuration settings to use them in a start-up script for that program, to produce a similar configuration file with some settings changed in order to use it on another machine, or to convert entire file into another format for interaction with some other utility.

Cfpeek is a utility designed to handle any of these tasks.
