What module did you use for reading/parsing your INI file? Config::Tiny? Config::Simple? Config::INI? Something else? Or did you roll your own?

For example, Config::Tiny handles spaces around the equals just fine:

#!/usr/bin/perl -l
use warnings;
use strict;

use Config::Tiny;
my $ini_string = <<"EOINI";
a=nospace
b = space
[GROUP1]
c=nospace
d = space
EOINI

my $cfg = Config::Tiny->read_string($ini_string);

use Data::Dumper; $Data::Dumper::Indent = 0;
print Dumper $cfg;
__END__
__OUTPUT__
$VAR1 = bless( {'_' => {'a' => 'nospace','b' => 'space'},'GROUP1' => {
+'d' => 'space','c' => 'nospace'}}, 'Config::Tiny' );

I don't have the other two installed, but Config::INI claims to handle spaces around the equals, and Config::Simple's claim of "whitespace support" implies to me that it might
