Generic configuration module for Perl

This module opens a config file and parses its contents for you. After parsing the module returns a hash structure that contains the representation of the config file. The format of config files supported by Config::General is inspired by the well known Apache config format: in fact, this module is 100% read-compatible with Apache config files, but you can also just use simple name/value pairs in your config files. In addition to the capabilities of an Apache config file, it supports some enhancements such as here-documents, C-style comments or multi-line options. It is also possible to save the config back to disk, which makes the module a perfect back-end for configuration interfaces. It is possible to use variables in config files and there also exists support for object oriented access to the configuration.
