Function Details

set(arg1, arg2, arg3=None, origin=`'user'`)

source code

sets a configuration item to a value.

arg1 can be a section, in which case arg2 is a key and arg3 is a value; alternatively, if arg3 is not given, arg1 is a key in the defaultSection, and arg2 is the value.

All arguments are strings that must be parseable by the referenced item's _parse method.

Origin is a tag you can use to, e.g., determine what to save.
