squid 3.5 conf setup

[James Adams <jadams@xxxxxxxxx>]

We have a few squid setups to handle large number of /24 IP blocks.
I want to know is there an easier configuration to do this as we have to manually configure each conf file and can take a long time plus the fact of human error. I am trying to reduce the number of lines needed and make it a little more efficient. Below is a snippet of a conf file. The bold text is what I am trying to reduce.
acl localnet src all

acl SSL_ports port 443
acl Safe_ports port 80          # http
acl Safe_ports port 21          # ftp
acl Safe_ports port 443         # https
acl Safe_ports port 70          # gopher
acl Safe_ports port 210         # wais
acl Safe_ports port 1025-65535  # unregistered ports
acl Safe_ports port 280         # http-mgmt
acl Safe_ports port 488         # gss-http
acl Safe_ports port 591         # filemaker
acl Safe_ports port 777         # multiling http
max_filedesc 65535
