| Summary | 0000032: whitespace in configfile leads to parser errors | ||||||||
| Description |
I am used to use indentation in config files with several sections, like /etc/samba/smb.conf: [global] workgroup = TUX-NET ... [printers] comment = All Printers ... If I try this in e.g. /etc/capisuite/fax.conf, I get parser errors for the capisuitefax script. |

This isn't too easy as the parser is a part of the python standard library. Will see if I can place a feature request there... |

I now checked this in more detail. It's not possible to ignore leading whitespaces as the Python ConfigParser supports continuation lines which are recognized by leading whitespaces. Thus you can break up a long value by doing [section] myaddress="Gernot Hillier Example Street 5 Bavaria" Therefore, leading whitespaces have a special meaning for the ConfigParser... |
