but when I try to re-open the virtual file I get: Variable "$CONFIG" is not imported

Yes. That's what I get with 5.10 also. It never used to happen. From mmeory, it worked correctly circa 5.8.1|2£|4|5'ish. But my memory is fallible and I don't have the capacity to test that aassertion.

I tried adding our $CONFIG; at the top of the file and that changes the problem to: 

Use of uninitialized value $CONFIG in concatenation (.) or string

But doesn't fix it entirley.

Like I said, I think that it suffers from a lack of ongoing maintenance. As with s many of theDamian's modules.
