Subject: feature req: writing ini-file with = as separator
when writing config-data to a file with write_config() it always writes data in style "key: value". the used separator should be "switchable" to "=" so that the .ini-file can easily be read in by AppConfig. would be cool. greetings and cheers, nick

Done. The next release will offer an option to control the default separator: use Config::Std { def_sep => '=' }; Thanks for the suggestion. Damian

To me it looks like you could then set the default seperator to anything you wanted... like say '-' or even '=>'. Would Config::Std read in files with special seperators if you set the seperator in the def_sep option? If not, then I would like to add that to the wish list? :) Thnx for the great package. ~Steven

I'm afraid that goes completely against the notion of "standard", so I won't be granting that particular wish. ;-) Damian

Damian added def_sep years ago and gave it to the requestor, but bug wasn't closed on release, so marking resolved belatedly. Bill for Boston.pm
