A bit ugly, but probably safer and simpler than adding arbitrary separators: [section] dir_1=/home/florian dir_2=/home/john dir_3=/home/whoever a s(a|i)mple implementation to give you the idea, it has some bugs: import ConfigParser import re class ConfigParserWithLists(ConfigParser.ConfigParser): def setlist(self, section, option, value) : for i, v in enumerate(value) : self.set(section, '%s_%i' % (option, i + 1), v) def getlist(self, section, option) : res = [] m = re.compile('^' + option + '_\d+$').match for oo in self.options(section) : if m(oo) : res.append(self.get(section, oo)) return res HTH -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
