Brian Curtin <br...@python.org> added the comment: This would break existing config files, including some of my own.
It would also require that you have some end delimiter on every item in order to handle the event that someone duplicates options, otherwise the following would likely behave badly in your application [sect] opt=first opt=second This would give you "firstsecond" that you'd somehow need to parse. Sometimes if I'm testing out options, like I want to check how "second" works, I'll quickly just do it as above. With a change like this, I couldn't do that, I'd be forced to comment out the first line, or add a delimiter and split on it. ---------- nosy: +brian.curtin _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12662> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
