Gloadals
========

[](#gloadals)

Load simple variables into the PHP global scope using an "ini" file.

This is meant to be quick for installation and usage.

Currently, the only variable types available for loading are: single-depth arrays (associative and numeric) and scalar.

Obviously, care should be taken when loading any variables into the global scope, if and when possible -- don't use globals! Please take care to not overwrite other global variables. You have been forewarned, and you will assume use of this code at your own risk.
