I have a list of git repositories addresses sorted according to the location of your hosting.

@GitHub ('@' demonstra que a linha representa um local de hospedagem)
url do repositório a (repositório a ser baixado)
url do repositório b (repositório a ser baixado)
@GoogleCode ('@' demonstra que a linha representa um local de hospedagem)
url do reposiorio c (repositório a ser baixado)
url do repositório d (repositório a ser baixado)

I want to separate this data (what is repository and what is hosting location), which will be in a file written by the user, in the best possible way. My idea is to use some module like ConfigParser, which creates for me a pattern and prevents flaws, unnecessary spaces, etc.

For now I'm doing this on the hand with conditionals (if the first element is '@', set it as the hosting location), I'd like to optimize my code. Any suggestions?

If the format is as simple as that, without any novelty planned, using some parser library, such as ANTLR , can give more work they do what you've already done.

If you have any control over the format, I would first suggest trying to avoid creating a new format and trying to use something with an existing parser, such as JSON, XML or YAML (the most readable of those three).
