There's a nice recipe on this in the Python Cookbook:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/65334

This will read your file in as a dictionary. You can
then do searches through lists of the keys:

mydict = LoadConfig(file.ini)
for key in mydict.keys():
    if re.search(key,"_at"): do_something(mydict[key])

Given the size of the file, I don't think that's a good idea...
