I am storing vars in a textfile like:

mintemp: 300
maxtemp: 350

And so on ...

I put the pointer to the var and the savetext (the same name as the var) in an 
array wich describes all the vars. When saving all vartexts are written and 
then the values.
It would be easier then to detect double names for example. The compiler does 
it then.
