My demo app had four config files (dev_mysql, dev_sqlite, prod_mysql, prod_sqlite), so I can see the use for a directory. -- Mike Orr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ([EMAIL PROTECTED] address is semi-reliable) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
