Config file update
#1
Hi,

I am using a config file that looks like this:

Output:
[Server] IP: 127.0.0.1 Port: 502 [Action] Test: True I want to update the file using code like this config.cfg.set("Server", "IP", "") config.cfg.set("Server", "Port", "") config.cfg.set("Action", "Test", "False") when I save the file, this is what I have in it: [Server] ip = port = [Action] test = False
The config file gets all messed up with '=' instead of ':' and a boolean instead of string in the last line for example
this is no longer usable in my app
Why is that happening?
