This function parses a .ini file
and returns a structure with section names and keys as fields.
Based on init2struct.m by Andriy Nych
Updated to allow in-line comments, remove optional text-quotes, keep case and convert numeric values. Only 45 LoC.
Param A = 5 4 3 # data: any numeric type
[My app] # spaces allowed everywhere
Title b = Cool program # text: no, single or double quote
struct = ini2struct('example.ini')
struct.ParamA: [5 4 3]
struct.MyApp.TitleB: 'Cool program'
