After parsing it returns a hash which contains all options and their associated values from your configuration file. . The format of configuration files supported by Config::General is inspired by the well known Apache configuration format, in fact, this module is fully capable of parsing Apache configurations, but the output is not usable by Apache. You can also just use simple name/value pairs in your configuration files. . In addition to the capabilities of an Apache configuration file it supports some enhancements such as here-documents, C-style comments and multi-line options.
