    /** Class for quickly loading settings from a text file.

        This class is designed to quickly parse a simple file containing

        key/value pairs, mainly for use in configuration settings.

        @par

            This is a very simplified approach, no multiple values per key

            are allowed, no grouping or context is being kept etc.

        @par

            By default the key/values pairs are tokenised based on a

            separator of Tab, the colon (:) or equals (=) character. Each

            key - value pair must end in a carriage return.

        @par

            Settings can be optionally grouped in sections, using a header

            beforehand of the form [SectionName].
