>>>Lefteous: OK, sorry, the cat was out the bag about your subject, but I post this again here, following the Maxwish's request...
Maybe am I off-target, but it's possible to skip the 64-KB limit for the usual *.INI files (only under Win9x !); that needs to use another file extension & syntax which work in Delphi (D. 5, I don't know for earlier D. versions...) They are *.SAV files
Example #1:
[langue]=C:\helios\langue\francais.lan
[analyse]=C:\helios\analyse\French.lan
[aide]=C:\helios\aide\aide.htm
[mailpardefaut]=charriesatwanadoodotdotfr
[aide_balise]=C:\helios\aide\Balise.htm
Example #2:
[chaine5]=<IMG SRC="bilder/pfeil.png">
[chaine6]=<!--
[chaine7]=…
[chaine8]=<A ID="xxx"><IMG SRC="bilder/anker.bmp" BORDER="0"></A>
[chaine9]=<BIG>|*BIG* HTML Marker
[chaine10]= BORDERCOLORDARK="cl1" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="cl2"
[chaine11]=<CENTER>

¤ Following a friend who uses this in his programs, it's possible to save any setting in the program-folder without any size-limit.
- The part after the pipe | allows a second string with the same row; here, it's a text in the status-bar...
- Doesn't support any empty row!
- Comments / section-name rows begin with //
Example #3 (language-file)
//PICTURE
100$Choose a Picture...
101$Picture Characteristics
102$Convert into JPEG
103$Convert into PNG..... and so on ....
What do you think?
Friendly,Claude
