I'm writing a text based RPG in perl and I am trying to find a way to set it to write a config file so I can have a save and load feature. While looking on here a couple of months ago I saw that someone was talking about the Config::Simple module, so I downloaded it and installed it I followed the syntax on http://search.cpan.org/~sherzodr/Config-Simple-4.59/Simple.pm but it does not work. I have the following code for setting up and writing the config file: 
use Config::Simple;
our $cfg;
$cfg = new Config::Simple(syntax=>'simple');
$cfg->autosave(1);
$cfg->param("player", "@player");
$cfg->param("quest", "$completed_quests");
$cfg->param("items", "$special_item")
$cfg->param("enemy", "@enemy");
$cfg->param("class", "$class");
$cfg->write("~/.kenesis");

I'm hoping someone more experienced/wiser than me here can figure out what I did wrong, or what I am missing.
