in reply to My preferred way of handling config data in Perl is:

.ini files.

Encrypted .ini files.

In Sumerian.

(Although once, because of a typo, I created a .nin file and the code got all depressed, dressed in black, bemoaned having to sell out to the music industry, and moved to the local art district. Who knew?)

    I'm older; I'd expect a nin file would cause the code to write pornographyerotica, and date your spouse||parents||significant other||children, probably all at once.
