[Pythonsudoku-devel] Problem with configuration

[<xos...@gm...>]

Hi Olivier,

Too many time since 0.11 version (6 months). I want to release 0.12 soon but I 
have one problem.
I've started to use distutils to make possible package the program. The 
problem is that this is my first try to make a multiplatform program and I 
don't know who to make it. I want to make possible that Python Sudoku can be 
used without instalation: the way it works in 0.11 where you only unzip the 
file, cd into the directory and execute the script; but also instalable via 
setup.py. On the other hand, the a installer could let you install the 
program in any directory and a way to set this directory should be possible.

I was thinking in create 2 configuration file:
a) a normal configuration file (/etc/pysdk.cfg in UNIX) for configuring each 
command line parameter
b) platform.cfg with 4 lines to set where the system configuration is 
(/etc/pysdk.cfg), the user configuration (~/.pysdk.cfg), locale dir 
(/usr/share/locale) and other param that i forget.

The problem is... where to put the platform.cfg? The only possible place that 
I found was inside the pythonsudoku package (pythonsudoku/*.py and 
pythonsudoku/platform.cfg): try to walk the python path for modules location 
and find the configuration file there. But this should be the place for 
python code only...

Any idea? Maybe this is a try to do a complicated thing because of stupidity 
and there is a simple wat to do things, but... how?
