I. Howto - "How are you supposed to use this program?"

II. History - "Why did I make this program?"
	A. Story
	B. Release list

III. To do - future features

-------------------------------------------
I. Howto
  A. Use Program
	1. Open program. (duh? ;P )
	2. Open ".ini" file.
	3. Use tree list to jump to desired section.
	4. Edit text, ini options, whatever.
	5. Save. (or not)
	6. Repeat from 2, 3, or 4 if desired.
	7. Close program.
  B. Make new ini section
	1. Go to where you want to put the section.
	2. Type the new section name inside square brackets("[]")
	3. Add whatever options you want underneath the section name.
	4. Click 'Save'.
	The new section should show up in the list.
  C. Resize panes
	1. Click and hold on an edge or corner of the window and drag the
		window to the desired size.
	2. Click and hold on the line between the panes and drag the line
		left or right to achieve the desired ratio between the text
		control and the section list.
	2a. If you drag the splitter line too far to the left or right, it
		will jump to the edge of the window. This will cause one of the
		panes to completely fill the main window. To reset the line to
		the middle, click on 'View/Split panes'.

-------------------------------------------
II. History
  A. Story
	I like to make mods for a certain popular commercial game. This game
uses ".ini" files for many of the game's settings--ok, nearly all of 
them. These rules files are very large and difficult to work with unless
I use 'search' extensively. Because of the popularity of modding this
particular game, I believed that someone would have made a program that
would make it very easy to find the sections from the ".ini" file and
place them alongside a text editor. After extensive internet searching,
I came up with exactly zero programs with this feature that didn't have
a bazillion other features unnecessary for editing ".ini"s. So I decided,
"I know a little about programming, so why not MAKE the program I want?"
	And here, after a little development time and a little programming,
is my first real, useful(I hope) program.

  B. Release list - new features
	1.2 - release (slight update)
		new menu with ".ini" specific functions-refresh section list, clear
			comments-(the menu is called "Ini"(no WAY, huh?))
		compressed again with upx203x (this time without losing the cool
			icon I put on the executable)

	1.1 - release (common features)
		now has menu with common features listed
		Find/Replace should work correctly(searches from cursor position)
		now can be associated with ".ini" files!!! Unfortunately, you must
			do the actual associating yourself (for now). It's not hard.
		can clear ".ini" style comments from files
	1.0 - release (basic features)
		now jumps to the section and passes focus to the text control 
			when the section in the tree is double-clicked (activated)
		again, the Windows binary executable is compressed with upx
	0.1 - initial release
		produces list of sections from opened ".ini"
		allows editing and saving of the text of the opened "*.ini"
		The binary executable has been compressed with upx203x
		   (http://upx.sourceforge.net) to save uploading 
		   bandwidth on my dial-up internet connection.
	  Note: The section list can be refreshed by saving the file with
		the "Save" button.
