How to implement preferences

[josuealcalde]

I am working in a simple gtk application. It is a gtk application developed using C++ and libGlade. It is not a gnome application.

I want to implement some preferences, which should be saved for next sessions. I would like to know if there is any standard or api to make this simple, or if I should implement this as I would like.

You could use GConf, which is the GNOME API for such things. Other than that, there's no offical standard, use whatever's most convient / useful.

I know Gconf, but I don't want to depend on it.
