title: Using colons in ConfigParser Python
body: <p>According to the documentation:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The configuration file consists of
    sections, led by a [section] header
    and followed by name: value entries,
    with continuations in the style of RFC
    822 (see section 3.1.1, “LONG HEADER
    FIELDS”); name=value is also accepted.

  </blockquote>
  
  <p>However, writing a config file always use the equal sign (=). Is there any option to use the colon sign (:)?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
