Config::Natural
Config::Natural is a Perl module that can read generic configuration files with a simple but very flexible syntax. It has very few constraints on the data, and has support for multi-line values and nested lists. Its object oriented API is compatible with modules like CGI or HTML::Template, and it can be safely associated with the latter.
