Config::JSON is a JSON based config file system.

SYNOPSIS

use Config::JSON;

my $config = Config::JSON->create($pathToFile);
my $config = Config::JSON->new($pathToFile);

my $element = $config->get($param);

$config->set($param,$value);

$config->delete($param);
$config->deleteFromHash($name, $key);
$config->deleteFromArray($name, $value);

$config->addToHash($name, $key, $value);
$config->addToArray($name, $value);

my $path = $config->getFilename;
Example Config File
# config-file-type: JSON 1

{
"dsn" : "DBI:mysql:test",
"user" : "tester",
"password" : "xxxxxx",

# some colors to choose from
"colors" : [ "red", "green", "blue" ],

# some statistics
"stats" : {
"health" : 32,
"vitality" : 11
}
}

Note that you can put comments in the config file as long as # is the first non-space character on the line. However, if you use this API to write to the config file, your comments will be eliminated.

Rsync::Config is a Perl module for rsync configuration generator.

Rsync::Config is a module who can be used to create rsync configuration files. A configuration file (from Rsync::Config point of view) is made by atoms and modules with atoms. A atom is the smallest piece from the configuration file. This module inherits from Rsync::Config::Module .

network-config is a simple network configuration tool.

Network-config is a simple and easy to use program that helps configuring the network interfaces for linux-based operating systems. It allows to have multiple configurations for the same computer and to easy configure NAT for internet sharing.

It can also be used to scan for wireless networks. It is written in perl and uses gtk2+, but also works as a command line program.

pkg-config is a helper tool used when compiling applications and libraries. It helps you insert the correct compiler options on the command line so an application can use gcc -o test test.c `pkg-config --libs --cflags glib-2.0` for instance, rather than hard-coding values on where to find glib (or other libraries). It is language-agnostic, so it can be used for defining the location of documentation tools, for instance.
The program free software and licensed under the [WWW]GPL version 2 or any later version (at your option).
pkg-config works on multiple platforms: Linux and other UNIX-like operating systems, Mac OS X and Windows. It does not require anything but a reasonably well working C compiler and a C library, but can use an installed glib if that is present. (A copy of glib 1.2.8 is shipped together with pkg-config and this is sufficient for pkg-config to compile and work properly.)
The first implementation was written in shell, by James Henstridge. Later, it was rewritten in C by Havoc Pennington. It also grew an autoconf macro written by Tim Janik, later rewritten by Scott James Remnant.
Enhancements:
- Segfaults were fixed.
- Win32 fixes were made.
- The --short-errors option was added, and is now used by pkg.m4 if available.
- This gives a better error message if some libraries cant be found.
