later (such as when string interpolation is performed)

Further cleanup of exceptions. All interpolation-related exceptions
...
now derive from InterpolationError, which is not raised directly (only
subclasses get raised). This matches what the docs already said.

Rob W. W. Hooft's spelling fixes for the Library Reference. I hope
...
SourceForge doesn't choke on this batch :-)
I'm not entirely sure this is 100% correct. The patch changes an
\index{persistency} to \index{presistence}, and I don't know what \index{}
does. But it seems to do so persi--er, consistently, so I hope it isn't a
problem.

Give ConfigParser the capability to set as well as read options, and to write
...
a representation of the configuration state in .ini format that can be read
back in by a future read() call. Thus this class is now a back end
for .ini editors as well as parsers.
This patch is complete and tested, but exposes a bug in the ConfigParser
implementation which I have not yet fixed. Because case information is
discarded during parsing, the output of write() has its case smashed.
I wrote this for a SourceForge interface script called forgetool.
Documentation for the new entry points included.
