\index{Windows ini file}
The \class{ConfigParser} class implements a basic configuration file
parser language which provides a structure similar to what you would
-find on Microsoft Windows INI files. (Beware: this library does \emph{not}
-interpret or write the value-type prefixes used in the Windows
-Registry extended version of INI syntax.) You can use this to write Python
+find on Microsoft Windows INI files. You can use this to write Python
programs which can be customized by end users easily.
+\begin{notice}[warning]
+ This library does \emph{not} interpret or write the value-type
+ prefixes used in the Windows Registry extended version of INI syntax.
+\end{notice}

The configuration file consists of sections, led by a
\samp{[section]} header and followed by \samp{name: value} entries,
with continuations in the style of \rfc{822}; \samp{name=value} is
the number of iterations exceeds \constant{MAX_INTERPOLATION_DEPTH}.
