Thanks for all the suggestions everyone.
After a bit of googling on the c.l.p. group, I see that building config
files is one of those 'Everyone has a favourite way of doing it' types
of problems, with lots of reimplementations. I should change the
thread topic to Yet Another Config File

[snip config/properties file needs]
I've checked out ConfigParser, ConfigObj, Pickle, PyYaml and
gnossis.xml.serialize, and none meet all the above criteria (though
they're all neat).
So I've decide to use ...drumroll please plistlib (

If it is closer to 100 than to 10, I would suggest
putting your constants into something like an INI file:
[MODEL1] # or something more meaningful
numBumps: 1
sizeOfBumps: 99
[MODEL2]
numBumps: 57
sizeOfBumps: 245

Thanks for your reply Steve. I like this suggestion because it
separates my config data from the code, which could mean less headaches
editing the values later. It also lets me keep my constants
language-neutral, which is good because I haven't convinced my boss yet
that

which I'm not sure the .ini format can easily support.
Hi all
I'm new to Python (and programming in general), and I can't decide what
is the most 'pythonic' way to approach a problem. Your advice would be
appreciated.
I have a bunch of 'scans', containing the data measured from one of
several types of 'model'. Each 'model' has different values for

Thanks for the vote FB. The reason I'm using that method for assigning
instance attributes is that the argument list for __init__ is LOOONG.
(There are many constants, I only gave two for the examples). I wanted
to avoid typing them out twice.
