AutoIt and using a notepad as setting file

[asfaloth]

Hello everyone, i'm really noob with autoit, since i've never coded nothing, but i think i get the mechanichs, In an autoit script that i downloaded, the script uses a .txt file as setting! Like:

#Use this settings to change stuff
setting1= 1
setting2= false

and more. What i ask is: how can a script interact with a txt file?

I know it's probably obvious but as i said, i'm a complete newbie x)
