The CONFIG:: Perl modules are highly useful in connection with mod_perl CGI scripts. It caches files to speed up file reading. It's possible to configure the module to remove comments (several types), trailing blanks, and empty lines, or to do other useful things only once.
You can download the most recent version of the CONFIG:: package at

Refer the manpages included in the package and have a look to the CONFIG:: guide at

# make install
