ConfigParser.write
- ConfigParser.write(fileobject, space_around_delimiters=True)
Write an .ini-format representation of the configuration state. If `space_around_delimiters` is True (the default), delimiters between keys and values are surrounded by spaces. Please note that comments in the original configuration file are not preserved when writing the configuration back.

Changed in 3.14
- 3.14: Raises InvalidWriteError if this would write a representation which cannot be accurately parsed by a future read() call from this parser.
