I would say it's pretty easy if you have a simple value, like a boolean, a number or a string. If you have a binary value like a class or a complex structure like a cluster, it's not as easy and you could replace it with something which you would find more suitable, such as XML (using EasyXML or the LV XML primitives or anything else you fancy), although my personal experience has been that XML isn't necessarily any easier to edit by hand, even if you have a program which displays it nicely.
Personally, I usually intend for these not to be edited manually, so I don't mind the format. The main advantage this has is that it's super-easy to use and that the old configuration is not lost if add new values that need to be saved.

I think you guys are getting a bit off in the weeds for me. I've got a ini file set-up and I an happy with this solution.
Thanks,
