FREQ: Indentation on #write

[RoUS]

I'd like to see a way to configure the indentation amount per [nested] group. E.g., set it to 4 and #write might emit

global_param = 1
[main]
main_param = 2
[sub1]
main_sub1_param = 3

Rather than adding all the code/logic to the gem for this, perhaps changing #write to take an optional block and pass some context info so the app can intervene as desired.

I apologize, but I'm not exactly clear on what you're asking for. There is no 'indentation' in the example above. Perhaps if you put the code within a <pre>...</pre> bock it would be more clear. For example, this is what I assume you mean:

global_param = 1

[main]
main_param = 2

    [sub1]
    main_sub1_param = 3

Currently ParseConfig doesn't read the config in this manner... but rather:

param = 1

[main]
main_param = 2

[sub1]
sub1_param = 3

Ah, groups cannot be nested. I wonder where I got that
impression from?

In that case, 'never mind.' But allowing block handling (such
as 'config.write do |group,param,val| / end') would be

quite cool.
