YAML is beautiful, I like it a lot and use it often. If you aren't building complicated data structures, you might also be able to get away with some of the INI file type modules, or even (dare I say it) XML::Simple. Personally though, if YAML fits, I use it. I rarely need a config file that is composed of code anymore.	[reply]

The monestery almost needs a YAML bot: find any post that matches 'serialize', 'config file', etc. and quickly offer up, 'use YAML'. But seriously, YAML is very slick and easy to use. Yet again, yaml++. water	[reply]
