 255 A true boolean is found if one of the following is matched:<p>
 256 <ul>
 257 <li>A string starting with 'y'</li><li>A string starting with 'Y'</li><li>A string starting with 't'</li><li>A string starting with 'T'</li><li>A string starting with '1'</li></ul>
 258 <p>
 259 A false boolean is found if one of the following is matched:<p>
 260 <ul>
 261 <li>A string starting with 'n'</li><li>A string starting with 'N'</li><li>A string starting with 'f'</li><li>A string starting with 'F'</li><li>A string starting with '0'</li></ul>

 353 This function queries a dictionary for a key. A key as read from an ini file is given as "section:key". If the key cannot be found, the notfound value is returned.<p>
 354 Supported values for integers include the usual C notation so decimal, octal (starting with 0) and hexadecimal (starting with 0x) are supported. Examples:<p>
 355 <ul>
 356 <li>"42" -&gt; 42</li><li>"042" -&gt; 34 (octal -&gt; decimal)</li><li>"0x42" -&gt; 66 (hexa -&gt; decimal)</li></ul>
 357 <p>
 358 Warning: the conversion may overflow in various ways. Conversion is totally outsourced to strtol(), see the associated man page for overflow handling.<p>
 359 Credits: Thanks to A. Becker for suggesting strtol()

 387 This function returns the number of sections found in a dictionary. The test to recognize sections is done on the string stored in the dictionary: a section name is given as "section" whereas a key is stored as "section:key", thus the test looks for entries that do not contain a colon.<p>
 388 This clearly fails in the case a section name contains a colon, but this should simply be avoided.<p>
 389 This function returns -1 in case of error.
