Inifile causes corruption on an ini file #17452

Open lucamanga opened 3 years ago

lucamanga commented 3 years ago

Inifile causes corruption on an ini file. Running nim 1.4.4

Example

import os, parsecfg, streams, strutils

inifile="example.ini"

var dict = loadConfig(inifile)
dict.delSectionKey("cache", "size")
dict.writeConfig(inifile)

Current Output

the ini file is corrupted

I'm not sure if this is a valid bug - Nim's parsecfg doesn't claim to be able to parse all of the .ini files out there, it claims to support its own format
