title: "Configuration File (.cfg)"
A plaintext configuration file.
# Structure
The file is plaintext, which is easy to parse. The file is split into categories, which are surrounded by `<` and `>`. Within those categories are key-value pairs which are separated by tab characters (`\t`).
```cfg
<FINAL FANTASY XIV Boot Config File>
<Version>
Version 3
Language 1
Region 2
```
Keep in mind that categories can exist without any key-value pairs, as shown above.
