The same woth PO. PO doesn't deal with config file generation but that (as I mention in my review) is completely unnessesary anyway. Why and how frequently would I want to generate my config files programmatically?
We read and write our config files a lot. Our systems perform the own optimisations and the latest settings our stored in a config file. The software reads in the current config file, modifies some values and writes out the entire config file again (currently they are XML based). But some values are also only human editable (not on the system setup display etc) so simple XML based files work well because they can easily be read/written by a person and the software itself.
