DESCRIPTION

17       Retrieves  a  string variable from the current config file. The section
18       name may be set to NULL to read variables from the root of the file, or
19       used to control which set of parameters (eg. sound or joystick) you are
20       interested in reading. Example:
21
22          const char *lang = get_config_string("system", "language", "EN");

RETURN VALUE

26       Returns a pointer to the constant string  found  in  the  configuration
27       file.   If the named variable cannot be found, or its entry in the con‐
28       fig file is empty, the value of `def' is returned.
