Ah, ok. Good point. Agreeing here. I wonder if we should prefix the  
folder name by something:

TEST_FOLDER=<data>.<format>

-> SessionsFolder::TEST_FOLDER=<data>.<format>

Or something like that...

Also: So, if there is an ini section named [General], it should get  
ignored by Python X2Go, right?

Greets,
Mike
