It does, but then you did not inspect the contents of hbide.ini.
Qt re-writes the contents in pure .ini way which is not adopted
in hbide.ini strictly. I am manipulating it my own way. 
So these remain to be two different files anyway.

It is true that it is not binary content, but it is also equally 
true that a programmer cannot change even a single byte.
When we comprehand .ini we have a notion that it is manually 
editable. In this case I preceive it as binary though its format 
is .ini.
