Subject: Extend ParserBase to do variable substitution.
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a5323d494cf5fcfa44e3b08cf54c86f1dd1a0978;p=catalyst.git

Extend ParserBase to do variable substitution.

Also add embedded variable substitiution to default settings.
Why are we not using python's built-in ConfigParser?
We'll migrate it later.
