in reply to parsing config file

There are TONS of modules on CPAN to do various 'config file' manipulation. It all depends on what kind of config file you have (or want to make).

To name a few there's:

I have personally used Config::General and have been quite happy with it.

/\/\averick
perl -l -e "eval pack('h*','072796e6470272f2c5f2c5166756279636b672');"

      Here's one way ;-)

      #! perl -w use strict; # your code goes here ...
      Rudif
      The "no module" requirement makes this sound like a home work assignment. ..Tell you what, register yourself and tell me why you can't use a module, and I'll tell you a way how to do it.

      /\/\averick
      perl -l -e "eval pack('h*','072796e6470272f2c5f2c5166756279636b672');"
