This is very easy. Here's a simplified snippet from rar_fmt:
#include "config.h"
...
global_work_size = some default;
char *temp;
...
if ((temp = cfg_get_param(SECTION_OPTIONS, SUBSECTION_OPENCL, "rar_KPC")))
global_work_size = atoi(temp);
if ((temp = getenv("KPC")))
global_work_size = atoi(temp);
In this example, the environment variable KPC will override the
john.conf entry if set. Here I used cfg_get_param which reads a string
but there is also a cfg_get_int() that reads an integer and a
cfg_get_bool() that reads true/yes/false/no and returns a bool (int).
The latter has a default too: Look at the prototypes in config.h.
SECTION_OPTIONS is just "Options". SUBSECTION_OPENCL is ":OpenCL" thus
the entry "rar_KPC" will be read from [Options:OpenCL]. You can use
whatever section and subsection you want to with no more code than the
above.

Do you mean in favor of GWS?
