Hi Ilya,

What you're suggesting can also work, the problem is tricky when
people use cloudmonkey as shell tool. Using the interactive shell, you
can fire up multiple instances and using set command you can have
various profiles in memory (each cloudmonkey has different host, port,
path, api, secret keys etc.), using various profiles in one cfg would
mean users would use something like sql's use statement to use a
profile; again becomes tricky as shell tool, so for each call you do
something like cloudmonkey -P <profile> <commands>.

So, I think it would be best if one keeps all their cfgs in
~/.cloudmonkey/config{0,1,2,3...} and calls cloudmonkey with default
cfg in ~/.cloudmonkey/config or using:
cloudmonkey -c <cfg file>

Thoughts?

Regards.
