ExtUtils::MakeMaker is a good way to go ( god knows shell scripts aren't too portable ), and is practically guaranteed to work on any platform perl runs on.

You should look at least look at Apache::Config (there's a whole bunch of those modules, and you ought to at least consider two of those).

Another way to go, and potentially easier to manage, is Ant (it's all xml), which is practically guaranteed to run on any platform java runs on.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
