There is a file post_check.ini
I need the value set for:
Max_value=2
How would I get the value 2
from Max_value
?

try
grep -Po '(?<=Max_value=).*' post_check.ini
Max_value=$(sed -n '/^Max_value=\([0-9]*\)$/s//\1/p' post_check.ini)
I recommend using crudini which is a dedicated tool to manipulate ini files from shell
value=$(crudini --get /usr/post_check.ini section Max_value)

You might find it useful to use proper config file parser. Given the following .ini
file:
$ cat post_check.ini
[section 1]
Max_value=123
[section 2]
Max_value=456
The following python
script will print 123
:
import ConfigParser, os
config = ConfigParser.ConfigParser()
config.read('post_check.ini')
print config.get('section 1','Max_value')
This is most reliable and modifiable way to go if you need to work with config files.
