Here's the sample from the perldoc:
.sub _some
# store the config data into $P0
$P0 = _config()
# Retrieve and print a key
$P1 = $P0["cc"]
print "Your C compiler is "
print $P1
print "\n"
.end
.include "library/config.imc"Which, when run on my OS X box, gives:
oolong:~/research/parrot coke$ ./parrot foo.imc Your C compiler is cc
How's that?

This might be it - how do I access the data ?

it's actually in 'runtime/parrot/library/config.imc'
Is this what you're looking for?

It would be nice to have a module that returns the installed parrot config. Other applications (hopefully a lot) that configure depending on parrot might need this. I mean something like App::Info::HTTPD::Apache (http://search.cpan.org/~dwheeler/App-Info-0.44/). I am not into App::Info so I can not decide what is neccessary to make it return parrot specific values ...
