* Package name : confget Version : 1.00 Upstream Author : Peter Pentchev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://devel.ringlet.net/textproc/confget/ * License : Two-clause BSD Programming Lang: C Description : Utility to read variables from a configuration file The confget utility examines a INI-style configuration file and retrieves the value of the specified variables from the specified section. Its intended use is to let shell scripts use the same INI-style configuration files as other programs, to avoid duplication of data. The confget utility may retrieve the values of one or more variables, list all the variables in a specified section, list only those whose names or values match a specified pattern (shell glob or regular expression), or check if a variable is present in the file at all. It has a "shell-quoting" output mode that quotes the variable values in a way suitable for passing them directly to a Bourne-style shell. I actually have a pretty-much ready package of confget, listed at the webpage above; all it needs is a change of description, a coalescing of the changelog entries, and it should be ready to go. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686)
