I think all of Jake's points are good answers. If you're using
@settings nodes, I don't think you'd need to make a configparser
yourself, just have a @settings tree in the outline with nodes like
@int mything-min-size = 12
@string mything-encoding-name = utf-8
then read with
min_size = c.config.getInt('mything-min-size')
etc. - using the first part of the settings names to group your
settings - but as Jake says, everything is flexible, you don't have to
do it that way.
Jake's declarations approach might work better if you want to tweak the
params a lot, seeing full reload is the only reliable way to update
after changing @settings.
