ConfigParser and multiple option names

[Florian Lindner]

Hello,
since ConfigParser does not seem to support multiple times the same option
name, like:

dir="/home/florian"
dir="/home/john"
dir="/home/whoever"

(only the last one is read in)

I wonder what the best way to work around this.

I think the best solution would be to use a seperation character:

dir="/home/florian, /home/john, home/whoever"

What character would be best to work on various operating systems? (of what
names may a path consist is the question)

What do you think? Any better ideas?

Thanks,

Florian
