[Configobj-develop] Semicolon Comments and Ignoring Parsing Errors

SourceForge Headquarters 1320 Columbia Street Suite 310 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hello-

I have a need to read an ini file (that I have no control over) that  
uses ; as the comment marker.

I found the following with respect to that:

But, as I'm new to all of this, I have no idea how to set class  
attributes or what the correct regular expression(s) would be.  Can  
anyone provide examples?

Also, this particular ini file lists duplicate "keyword" names as a  
way to specify multiple parameters, like so:

TrustedCACert=/etc/CA/admin.pem
TrustedCACert=/etc/CA/client.pem

This causes ConfigObj to barf--which is fine, because I don't need to  
read these values, I would just like to ignore the error and move on.   
Is this possible?

Thanks for any help and excuse my voluminous ignorance...
