mirc stores settings in many ini files mirc.ini server.ini control.ini etc
this feature could help save a whole mirc season in one file

<options>
...
</options>
<servers>
<server>
<addr>irc.addr</addr>
<port>6667</port>
<accounts>
<account username="" password="" />
</accounts>
<favourites>
<channel>#name</channel>
</favourites>
</server>
</servers>

looks better ?
ini files lacks the ability to nest data storage in a tree
u can use many ini files one for many sections but,,
when u want to rename a server for example
without changing accounts and favourites
u will have to rename each ini file used
