Despite those, yes I would very much prefer to use YAML as a
configuration format. (ConfigParser INI format is acceptable. JSON is
definitely not, because it has no simple way to put comments in the

I.e.:

backupHost = eng%26

It would require a lot more than that. It would entail changing
the reading as well so that it preserved the comments as well as
the order of sections & keys, and a way of storing those
associated comments in sequence. I looked into it a f

Hi - Beginner question here. I'm working with ConfigParser. I'd like
to take a multiline variable and convert it directly to an array.
Seems like a common problem, but I don't see how I can do it without
doing a little parsing in my own code. Here's what I'm doing ...

I would probably subclass dict to create a string specific, case
insensitive version, and supply it as the dict_type. See

If you don't care about the case of the config parameter values, you
could pre-convert the input to
configParser all in UPPER or lower letter with a file-
Is there any way by which configParser's get() function can be made
case insensitive?

How about doing something like
host.name=%HOSTNAME%
Then when you parse in the value %HOSTNAME% from your configParser module you
do a pattern substitution of %HOSTNAME% with os.environ['HOSTNAME'].

Hi,
I am using ConfigParser module and would like to know if it has the
feature to autoexpand environment variables.
For example currently, I have the below section in config where
hostname is hardcoded.
I would like it to be replaced with the values from the env variable
os.envion['HOSTNAME

Is there a way to parse RealPlayer's realplayerrc in Python? I need
to support Python 2.5 - 2.7
Example code
import urllib2
import ConfigParser
f = urllib2.urlopen('http://pastebin.com/download.php?i=N1AcUg3w')
config = ConfigParser.RawConfigParser()
config.readfp(f)
