WinVNC .ini file?

I've been looking at a number of remote control programs for Windows
recently.  Most of them seem to use an .ini file where configuration options
are stored (like enabling user acknowledgment, setting what options the
user/controller has, etc), usually configured by a GUI frontend with
checkboxes and the like.  WinVNC, on the other hand, uses Registry entries
for most of this stuff, which (please correct me if I'm wrong) have to be
edited by hand.  Just curious as to the rationale behind using Registry
entries, and if WinVNC will ever use an .ini file scheme.  Also if someone's
developed an easier, more automated way to write/update the registry
entries, I'd love to about hear it.

Thanks,
Glenn
