title: Configuration file syntax
body: <p>I'm developing software that will utilize a config file. I don't know many syntaxes or formats of config files. Here are the two I know:</p>
  
  <p>(common with .conf files)</p>
  
  <pre><code>[section]
  key=value
  #comment
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>or (common with .ini)</p>
  
  <pre><code>key value
  ; comment
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My interest is something versatile that's almost a language. Let's say</p>
  
  <pre><code>[Default]
  Start = 0
  End = 10
  Speed = 1
  
  [Section 3-6]
  Speed = 2
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This would act as an override. However this isn't any convention that I know of. Is there a common syntax that allows for this?</p>
