Body
I worked (programatically, for a project) with a lot of config files from many *nix projects like Apache's, Squid's, smtpd's, ldap's, PAM's etc. etc. I have come to realise there is deffinetly NOT a common format (grammar) but instead each project defines his own ad-hoc format and implements it's own custom parser. No common specification. So the aproach on *nix projects <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Configuration_file" rel="nofollow noreferrer">config files</a> si not "use the parser library" but rather "write your own parser". There are however projects that try to stick to some sort of standard. Most common amog theese is the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INI_file" rel="nofollow noreferrer">.ini file format</a> (originated on OS/2 and windows) or <a href="http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">GConf file format</a>, for theese you may find readily <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/190629/what-is-the-easiest-way-to-parse-an-ini-file-in-java">available</a> parsers. Apache (read a-patch-e, as in made from many patches) is in the free-form class. It started with a <code>var value</code> format then, after a lot of "patching", added a warty-xmlish grammar for specifing scope and context of config vars. <ul> <li>If you just tweak parts of the config file, probably your best approach would be to scan the file looking for your desired config vars and then work with the file locally. </li> <li>If however you need to config the whole file, better make a Java parser based on the C one.</li> </ul>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
