## Description

TMemIniFile is a simple descendent of TIniFile which introduces some extra methods to be compatible to the Delphi implementation of TMemIniFile. The FPC implementation of TIniFile is implemented as a TMemIniFile, except that TIniFile does not cache its updates, and TMemIniFile does.
