So, whats so great about it?
- Automatic type conversion due to VariantType
- Super simple interface for modifying variables
- Variables can be references to C/C++ data types so the saved value is automatically updated
- Default values can be provided for simple configuration file generation
- Human readable and easy to modify files (example)
- Case insensitivity for maximum human compatibility
- Searchable variables with Linear, Globbing, and RegEx search algorithms
- Groupable variables to allow for logical n-node tree like structures
- Multiple variables of the same name can exist
- Automatic variable sorting and alignment on a save
