-----------------------

Hello,

       I was trying to use the ConfigParser provided
with Python when I realized that there is a problem
with the case in the string passed in the Interpolation
feature.

       Explicitely, test1 works but test2 doesn't. You
can see by yourself with the attachment.

===========================
[Test1]
logFullPath: c:/logs/%(logfilename)s
logFilename=test.log

[Test2]
logFullPath: c:/logs/%(logFilename)s
logFilename=test.log
===========================

Using a capital letter in %('string')s doesn't work,
even if the key is declared with a capital letter. How
could we fix this?

Thanks for your help,
Best regards,

Michel Martin
