You don't have to. With a config file:
###
[copy_files]
/some/path = this.file that.file
C:\a windows\path with spaces= one.1 two.two
a_continuation_line_starting_with_a_tab.xyz
and_another_starting_with_a_some_spaces.abc
/some/other/path = the_other.file yet_another.file
###
the following program:
###
#!/usr/bin/python
import ConfigParser
config = ConfigParser.ConfigParser()
config.readfp(open(r'ConfigTest.INI'))
opts = config.options('copy_files')
print opts
print 'Files to be copied:'
for opt in opts:
path = opt
optVal = config.get('copy_files', opt)
#print opt, optVal
fileNames = optVal.split()
### The following lines are only needed for Windows
### because the use of ':' in Windows' file name's
### device part clashes with its use in ConfigParser
pathParts = ''
for ind in range(len(fileNames)):
if fileNames[ind][-1] in ':=':
path += ':' + pathParts + fileNames[ind][:-1]
del fileNames[:ind+1]
break
pathParts += fileNames[ind] + ' '
### Windows dependent section ends
print ' Path:', '>' + path + '<'
for fn in fileNames:
print ' >' + fn + '<'
###
produces the following output:
###
['c', '/some/other/path', '/some/path']
Files to be copied:
Path: >c:\a windows\path with spaces<
>one.1<
>two.two<
>a_continuation_line_starting_with_a_tab.xyz<
>and_another_starting_with_a_some_spaces.abc<
Path: >/some/other/path<
>the_other.file<
>yet_another.file<
Path: >/some/path<
>this.file<
>that.file<
