Yes you have to get a file pointer (fp) and do the write as you noted.

Also to get instance of ConfigParser you need:

cp = ConfigParser.ConfigParser()  (note the trailing parenthesis)

If you want to read existing .INI file before doing this you need a
cp.read('filename.ini') somewhere in your code.
