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(read-only), 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.
