Hello Giorgio!

As I said, one thing what library can do, and another thing - what it is 
intended for. Destination of Boost.Spirit, as it is written in the 
documentation: "LL parser framework represents parsers directly as EBNF 
grammars in inlined C++". Destination of my Configurator: "easy and 
flexible work with configuration files". My library designed ONLY for 
this task and nothing more, because I adhere to the principle of "one 
task - one library".Even a C++-novice can use my library within 3 
minutes after downloading, because it has a very simple interface, but 
it lets to work with files on the level of complexity comparable to 
httpd.conf.

My target - useful features on the one hand and maximum simplicity of 
usage on the other.
