Apologies for not following most of the conversation, but just thought I'd mention that in the past I've done:
def main(global_conf, **app_settings): settings = global_conf.copy() settings.update(app_settings) Which allows you to override settings in your app if you want while still specifying common setup in [DEFAULT]. Pyramid just uses PasteDeploy to parse the INI file, so any 'set' semantics will still work. Since the settings are not combined by Pyramid, however, I don't think you will gain much by using 'set' over the code I showed above. -- Michael -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
