First, one of the posters got it right. Nothing is REALLY ever "written"
to the file. Consider it a global variable that isn't a global variable.
Assume you have two modules, A and B. Both modules import config.
Furthermore, let's assume that Module B 'writes' a variable called "font"...

like 'font' that is a user set preference or a calibr
