The vars.ini file added in #92 lets developers define variables that can be used across the program in an easily configurable way. However, the .ini filetype isn't meant for this and doesn't support some features that might be useful, like multiline strings or other types. Using an .ini file also means extra dependencies.
Switching over to a .toml file would mean using existing dependencies and would also add support for more types. These types would be converted to strings, but it would mean a better-looking file better suited for something like this.
