configobj 4.6.0

Config file reading, writing and validation.

ConfigObj is a simple but powerful config file reader and writer: an ini file round tripper. Its main feature is that it is very easy to use, with a straightforward programmer's interface and a simple syntax for config files. It has lots of other features though :

• Nested sections (subsections), to any level

• List values

• Multiple line values

• Full Unicode support

• String interpolation (substitution)

• Integrated with a powerful validation system

  • including automatic type checking/conversion
  • and allowing default values
  • repeated sections

• All comments in the file are preserved

• The order of keys/sections is preserved

• Powerful unrepr mode for storing/retrieving Python data-types

Release 4.6.0 fixes bugs and adds new features, particularly making configspec handling more flexible.
