[gnome-love] Do I use Gconf for this?

[ethan zimmerman <lists ethanzimmerman com>]

I'm creating a little text editing program, that lets people add there
own custom tags from a drop down menu. (i.e. Tools->Insert Tag->(user's
tag list)) And I'm currently storing the users custom tags in a text
file like this.....

name open close
bold <b> </b>
italic <i> </i>
yadda yadda yadda
larry moe curly

Is this something I should be using Gconf for or should I stick with a
file in the users home directory? Also if the answer is file does anyone
know of some good examples for implementing that (my current file
structure isn't very good)?
