Very good idea. :)

Very nice. You might want to include a short description of what
IniFile.ReadString does, especially the third parameter.
For myself, I'd rather include a bozo-value (like '%%NOTFOUND%%' or '')
as the default value for ReadString, so I can do other checking (or ask
the user to set a location).
In general, some comments about what's going (ie, what is ldraw.ini?)
might be good. It would all be redundant information, but that's the
way it goes with tutorials. :)
