// Read all registry keys and values as array
regKey = 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run';
keyList = getreg(regKey);
print_r (keyList);

// Read specific key
value = getreg (regKey, "MyKey"));

// Create a new registry sub tree
regKey = "Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run";
putreg (regKey, "SubTree");

// Add a key/value pair
putreg (regKey."\\SubTree", "Key", "Value");

// Add a key/value pair as 32 Bit DWORD
myNum = 0xFFFFFFFF;
putreg (regKey."\\SubTree", "Key 2", myNum, 1);

// Delete the whole sub tree
delreg (regKey, "SubTree", 1);
