modifiable config files in compiled code?

[gaudetteje at gmail.com]

There are a lot of good options here.  Much more than I thought I had.
Since my program's configuration file will need to be read/writeable
from an existing Java Netbeans GUI, I'll most likely move the Python
module to an INI or XML document.  The deciding factor will be
whichever the other programmer is most comfortable with, of course.

Thanks, everyone.
