This just shows a real-world use case of what the format looks like. Overall I think it works fairly well even on a format designed for YAML. Since Simple Config and YAML are so similar you can diff the two files to get a comparison. I think it is a win for Simple Config except for the `script:`. However if a multi-line string was used instead of a list of strings I think it would look nicer than the YAML as well. Places where Simple Config shines: - You can use tabs if you want to. - Much less quoting required and the quoting rules are simple (newlines and comments). For example no surprises with numbers being a different type than string or NO being parsed as `false` instead of a string. - No quoting at all required for multi-line strings. Places where YAML is nicer: - Lists of multi-line values generally don't need an extra line of indentation.
