Lighty (lighttpd) config format?

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Do any modules handle the lighty (lighttpd) configuration format? It seems to be a cross between perl and python so it seems more natural than my other choice- the apache format as implemented by Config::General.

Apache or Lighty? Get better choices (for example YAML, or something that Config::Auto groks). (Not that I don't think Lighttpd's isn't a slight improvement over Apache's in some respects, but there's simpler alternatives. And if you need a fancier alternative, just use Perl :)	[reply]

I'd rather use something the users are familiar with, especially since my project is to work in conjunction with the webserver.	[reply]

see the lighttpd configuration documentation. the extended syntax is actually quite ugly and looks like php.	[reply]
