ConfigObj is a simple but powerful config file reader and writer: an
ini file round tripper. Its main feature is that it is very easy to
use, with a straightforward programmer's interface and a simple syntax
for config files. It has lots of other features though :

    * Nested sections (subsections), to any level
    * List values
    * Multiple line values
    * String interpolation
    * Integrated with a powerful validation system

              o including automatic type checking/conversion
              o and allowing default values

    * All comments in the file are preserved
    * The order of keys/sections is preserved
    * No external dependencies
