Dear Lazyweb, My jail.local has an "ignoreip" setting that is thousands of lines long, because reasons. I would like to put those lists of IP addresses in separate files instead of inlining them all in the same place. What's the easiest way to do that?

I assume it's something like: add a "before" to "" then do:

ignoreip = %(this_one)s %(that_one)s

but the files don't seem to be getting included early enough, if at all.

It is criminally negligent that despite being ridiculously overly-complicated, this Python clone of Windows INI files still manages to have no syntax meaning "append".

Previously, previously, previously, previously.
