It is similar to the
Registry on WIN32 and Preferences on MacOS, and provides a
simple configuration mechanism for UNIX.
Fl_Preferences uses a hierarchy to store data. It
bundles similar data into groups and manages entries into those
groups as name/value pairs.
Preferences are stored in text files that can be edited
manually. The file format is easy to read and relatively
forgiving. Preferences files are the same on all platforms. User

Entries can be of any length. However, the size of each
preferences file should be kept small for performance
reasons. One application can have multiple preferences files.
Extensive binary data however should be stored in separate
files: see getUserdataPath().
