What about this? # proj.cfg [PROJECTx] path=/path/to/dir1 [PROJECTy] path=/path/to/dir2 # cfg.py from ConfigParser import ConfigParser cfg = ConfigParser() cfg.read("proj.cfg") for proj in cfg.sections(): path = cfg.items(proj)[0][1] print "proj: %s, path: %s" % (proj, path) Is that not enough? -- HTH, Rob -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
