Re: Default/editable string to raw_input

Paraic Gallagher enlightened us with:
What I am trying to do is provide a simple method for a user to
change a config file, for a test suite.

My opinion: let the user edit the configuration file using his/her
favourite text editor. Someone configuring a test suite should
certainly be able to edit a text file.
