A simple abstraction of Python’s ConfigParser
#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# A simple abstraction of Python’s ConfigParser.
# It features implicit type conversion and defaults through prior
# registration of settings. It can be used to save and read settings
# without bothering about the specifics of ConfigParser or the INI files
# themselves. It could also serve as a starting point to abstract
# platform-specific saving methods through its general API.

A custom exception class that closely resembles Python’s OSError
#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# A custom exception class that closely resembles the behavior of
# Python’s built-in OSError, including arguments and automatic
# subclassing. Useful if a fine-grained error handling based on
# error numbers is needed.
