[Python-Dev] Re: [Python-checkins] CVS: python/dist/src/Lib ConfigParser.py,1.16,1.17

Thanks for catching that. I didn't look at the context. I'm going to wait, though, until I talk to Fred to mess with the code any more. General question for python-dev readers: What are your experiences with ConfigParser? I just used it to build a simple config parser for IDLE and found it hard to use for several reasons. The biggest problem was that the file format is undocumented. I also found it clumsy to have to specify section and option arguments. I ended up writing a proxy that specializes on section so that get takes only an option argument. It sounds like ConfigParser code and docs could use a general cleanup. Are there any other issues to take care of as part of that cleanup? Jeremy
