PostgreSQL INI files

This looks like it would need to be a separate parser, possibly reusing the INI parser with some pre-processing to remove inline comments. The INI parser documentation states that all comments must be on their own line.

Thanks, I'd missed the fact that the existing parser doesn't allow inline comments, I'll use sed for now:

cat /etc/postgresql/15/main/postgresql.conf | sed 's/[#].*$//' | jc --ini -p
