SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h> const char *get_config_string(const char *section, const char *name, const char *def);
DESCRIPTION
Retrieves a string variable from the current config file. The section name may be set to NULL to read variables from the root of the file, or used to control which set of parameters (eg. sound or joystick) you are interested in reading.
