[reportlab-users] Feature request for rl_config.py

[Dinu Gherman]

Hi,

a typical reportlab user has to update RLTK, a few times per year,
say, to install the latest distribution. Independant of how many
times extactly this will happen, I find that less conveniant than
it could be, because I have to re-edit manually the file named
rl_config.py, usually to change at least the font paths.

It would be more convenient and less error-prone to import in
rl_config a file which is optionally available in some canonical
places, like the folders site-packages/reportlab, ~ or even some-
where on the PYTHON_PATH.

Or has anybody else found other methods of dealing with that kind
of "change management"?
