Aside, I dislike Microsoft's INI files that have appeared in Unix. :-)
They're not line based, but have context, making them more awkward to
search and edit with Unix tools.

`startup-files.eqn=INSTALLPATH/eqnrc' might lead to repetition over many
lines, but it's self-contained; the parser need not track any
`[section]', and sed can edit it more easily.
