Matt, you're now officially the Ferdinand Magellan of the exploration. Let us know how it goes.

libconf, while being significantly more complicated than pyparselibconfig, seems also far superior. +1 from me for jettisoning pyparselibconfig.

Oh, now I see that this was just a ploy to get me to contribute again! Just when you think you're out....
But seriously, happy to help if desired, but also happy to not get in the way and delay getting things done. Hope you all are doing well.

Ooh, I change my vote to exploring this option first.
As the original author of pyparselibconfig, I release all obligations of keeping it around. I have a *very* vague memory that I wrote it because the other options at the time were either painful to install, bloated, or possibly both. My guess is that it worked for some file associated with Enzo-3, which may or may not have been libconf feature complete. If
was still interest in supporting pyparselibconfig, I'd be open to taking an example cfg file and fumbling around a bit to see if I can get it to work.
Cheers, Sam

Matt, you are also correct. Enzo-P ingests a non-libconfig style
but outputs in both this native format and normal libconfig. It would also be great to be able to parse the native format, but that would need to be written from scratch.
