As always there are two ways ...

1. Simple :

use

dofile("filename.ini")

to load up the variables and their values in the memory

Advantages :
-- Simple to use ..

Disadvantages :
-- you cant save any settings
unless by editing the file directly
-- You may not find the file where you are looking for it ..
to solve this use assert(condition, error_message)
assert Example :

assert( 1==1 , "One is not one") 
-- this will be ok because 1 is equal to 1
assert( 1==2, "One is not one")
-- this will issue a message "One is not one" in the debug/error output...

so if dofile returns ' nil ' which isnt ' true ' then assert will catch it and inform about the errror ...
Common use :

file = "filename.txt"
assert(dofile(file), "ERROR!!, "..file.." wasn't found..")

2. Complicated :
The complicated way involves using some sort of saveToFile* function that stores the values in the file ... overwriting contents if the exist in the file previously ...

* Look for Serialize, pickle ...  in here there are Lua4 versions of those ... Clients can use Lua 5 pickle function look for ' libsimplepickle.lua ' in the scripts folder ...
