Thomas von Dein f9c0a5a8f3 1.32 - *argl* ... I forgot Interpolated.pm, don't know how that
could happen, in 1.29 it was "lost". However - 
	   I added it again now.
	 - added patch by Peder Stray <peder@linpro.no> to
	   the _store() method, which makes it possible to catch
	   arrays of hashes to be stored correctly.
	 - cleaned up the t/run.t testscript to reflect the
	   changes (in fact I did not touch it since 1.18 or so).
	 - added test number 16 to test variable interpolation
	   using ::Interpolated in t/run.t.
	 - fixed bug with new() parameter -AllowMultiOptions which
	   generated a croak() if set to something other than "no".
	 - changed Extended::save() to reflect the API change,
	   it calls now save_file().

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.
