Hello, I have file called PARAMETRES that is used in bourne shell script to define variable. In order to do so I put a ". PARAMETRES" line and the script has acces to all the variable defined in the PARAMETRES file.
Now, I would like to be able to get the same thing in python. I googled and played with os.system to try to come up with something but no success so far. I also tryed exec but it doesn't work becaus a lot of string variable difined in the PARAMETRES file do not have the ' sign needed in python string. for example. Let's say I have a file PARAMETRES containing TOTO=whatever, I would like to have a command to read that file and have the variable TOTO='whatever' in python. Thanks for any help.
