@class wxFileConfig
wxFileConfig implements wxConfigBase interface for
storing and retrieving configuration information using plain text files. The
files have a simple format reminiscent of Windows INI files with lines of the
form @c "key = value" defining the keys and lines of special form
@c "[group]" indicating the start of each group.
This class is used by default for wxConfig on Unix platforms but may also be
used explicitly if you want to use files and not the registry even under
Windows.

Note the interaction of this function with the internal "dirty flag": the
data is saved unconditionally, i.e. even if the object is not dirty. However
after saving it successfully, the dirty flag is reset so no changes will be
written back to the file this object is associated with until you change its
contents again.
