Description: # TextConfig
        
        TextConfig is a Class for managing simple text configuration files with
        python. By simple, it means that they are simple text files, there are
        no sections and all options in the configuration files use a strict
        
        ```
        OPTION=value
        ```
        
        format, with no spaces between `OPTION`, `=` and `value`.
        The same `OPTION` can be used more than once, so you can have multiple
        values, for example:
        
        ```
        EXAMPLE=one
        EXAMPLE=two
        ```
        
        Here's a real-world example of such a file, taken from the `slapt-get` package
        manager repository configuration file in Salix:
        
        ```
        # Working directory for local storage/cache.
        WORKINGDIR=/var/slapt-get
        
        # Exclude package names and expressions.
        # To exclude pre and beta packages, add this to the exclude:
        #   [0-9\_\.\-]{1}pre[0-9\-\.\-]{1}
        EXCLUDE=^aaa_elflibs,^aaa_base,^devs,^glibc.*,^kernel-.*,^rootuser-settings,^zzz-settings.*,-i?86-
        
        # The Slackware repositories, including dependency information

        # The Salix repository
        SOURCE=http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/download.salixos.org/x86_64/14.2/:PREFERRED
        # And the Salix extra repository
        SOURCE=http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/download.salixos.org/x86_64/extra-14.2/:OFFICIAL
        ```
        
        You may call it like this:
        
        ```
        from textconfig import TextConfig
        c = TextConfig('/path/to/configfile')
        ```
