 =head1 DESCRIPTION
 
-This module is a simple interface to reading config files. Config file
-format is roughly like .XDefaults format - <name>:<value> pairs. A
-hash of the name/value pairs are returned. Variable interpolation is
-supported such that env(1) variables will be interpolated as well as
-previously defined values. Thus:
