in _store(), which caused the module to create scalar
entries even if the entry contained newlines. While
Danial supplied a patch to fix this - thx(TM) - I
did not apply it, because I "outsourced" this kind of
stuff to the subroutine _write_scalar(), see next.
- added internal methods _write_scalar() and _write_hash()
to simplify _store(), which did the same thing more
than once, which is a good time to create a sub which
does the job.
- fixed cut'n paste bug in General/Extended.pm reported by
Danial Pearce <danial@infoxchange.net.au>, which caused
Config::General::Extended::is_scalar() to return true even
when the key you pass in is an array.
- added new method Config::General::Extended::delete() suggested
by Danial Pearce <danial@infoxchange.net.au>, which deletes
the given key from the config.

NAME
Config::General - Generic Config Module
SYNOPSIS
use Config::General;
$conf = new Config::General("rcfile");
my %config = $conf->getall;
DESCRIPTION
This small module opens a config file and parses it's
contents for you. The new method requires one parameter
which needs to be a filename. The method getall returns a
hash which contains all options and it's associated values
of your 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% compatible to apache configs, 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 multiline options.
