• 90% of all SRU files are based on the popular config file format. A configuration file is used by computer software to store settings. It consists of a text-based content with a structure and syntax comprising key–value pairs for properties, and sections that organize the properties. The contents of these files can even be read by a human. The files are often between 280 bytes and 1 KB in size. The file type is relatively new. The keywords BLANKETT, IDENTITET, NAMN, #UPPGIFT 7011 and #UPPGIFT 7012 are typical for these files. The file name BLANKETTER.sru or blanketter (1).sru is characteristic of these files.
