In the above case, the first four lines are always processed. They could have been preceded with another [always] header, or combined with the other [always] section. The five lines under [jack] are only processed if the user is jack, in which case the boolean options would override the previously set ones, the DEFAULT printer would only apply if no printer had been previously specified (by the application or in miame.ini), and the PRTSPL line defining the JET2 printer would be added to the previous set of printers (currently containing only PDFX). The [always] section always gets processed. The [default] section would only be processed for users other than jack.

The capability of adding sections for individual users allows a great deal of flexibility for large systems.
