StdConfigParser 0.5

A standard INI style configuration parser.

This is the Python configparser with an extra class StdConfigParser. The StdConfigParser class uses specified parameters to initialize the Python ConfigParser and adds some useful converters. The result is a simple well defined syntax for the INI file. See it as a preconfigured ConfigParser class for you. It allows interoperability in configuration between different projects.

Also contains everything to be a backport of the ConfigParser from Python 3.5 to Python 2.7.

Everything in one module easy to vendor or install as extra dependency.
