The ini method would be easiest as I stated earlier since I have already
written the TInifile and it is in the FCL. As to the tree structure that
should be that much of a deal. It would just be a matter of loading all
of the tree levels into one name and making that a section head Ex.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-SOFTWARE-Lazarus]

The tree itself is really just an illusion.

The other alternative which in fact might be the best alternative would
be to make it be an XML document. Then you could maintain the actual
Tree structure and appearance in the file itself. Would make editing it
very easy. I kind of like this idea better myself since we do hav XML
capability in the FCL now.

Opinions?
