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