def config(cli: MILC) -> bool

Read and write config settings.

This script iterates over the config_tokens supplied as argument. Each config_token has the following form:

section[.key][=value]

If only a section (EG 'compile') is supplied all keys for that section will be displayed.

If section.key is supplied the value for that single key will be displayed.

If section.key=value is supplied the value for that single key will be set.

If section.key=None is supplied the key will be deleted.

No validation is done to ensure that the supplied section.key is actually used by a subcommand.
