=head1 NAME

C<TeXLive::TLConfFile> -- TeX Live generic configuration files

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use TeXLive::TLConfFile;

  my $conffile = TeXLive::TLConfFile->new($file_name, $comment_char,
                                          $separator, $type);
  $conffile->file;
  $conffile->cc;
  $conffile->sep;
  $conffile->type
  $conffile->key_present($key);
  $conffile->keys;
  $conffile->value($key [, $value, ...]);
  $conffile->is_changed;
  $conffile->save;
  $conffile->reparse;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module allows parsing, changing, saving of configuration files
of a general style. It also supports three different paradigma 
with respect to multiple occurrences of keys: C<first-win> specifies
a configuration file where the first occurrence of a key specifies
the value, C<last-win> specifies that the last wins, and
C<multiple> that all keys are kept.

The configuration files (henceforth conffiles) can contain comments
initiated by the $comment_char defined at instantiation time.
Everything after a $comment_char, as well as empty lines, will be ignored.

The rest should consists of key/value pairs separated by the separator,
defined as well at instantiation time.

Whitespace around the separator, and before and after key and value 
are allowed.

Comments can be on the same line as key/value pairs and are also preserved
over changes.

Continuation lines (i.e., lines with last character being a backslash)
are allowed after key/value pairs, but the key and
the separator has to be on the same line.

Continuations are not possible in comments, so a terminal backslash in 
a comment will be ignored, and in fact not written out on save.

=head2 Methods

=over 4

=item B<< $conffile = TeXLive::TLConfFile->new($file_name, $comment_char, $separator [, $type]) >>

instantiates a new TLConfFile and returns the object. The file specified
by C<$file_name> does not have to exist, it will be created at save time.

The C<$comment_char> can actually be any regular expression, but 
embedding grouping is a bad idea as it will break parsing.

The C<$separator> can also be any regular expression.

The C<$type>, if present, has to be one of C<last-win> (the default),
C<first-win>, or C<multiple>.

=item B<< $conffile->file >>

Returns the location of the configuration file. Not changeable (at the moment).

=item B<< $conffile->cc >>

Returns the comment character.

=item B<< $conffile->sep >>

Returns the separator.

=item B<< $conffile->type >>

Returns the type.

=item B<< $conffile->key_present($key) >>

Returns true (1) if the given key is present in the config file, otherwise
returns false (0).

=item B<< $conffile->keys >>

Returns the list of keys currently set in the config file.

=item B<< $conffile->value($key [, $value, ...]) >>

With one argument, returns the current setting of C<$key>, or undefined
if the key is not set. If the configuration file is of C<multiple>
type a list of keys ordered by occurrence in the file is returned.

With two (or more) arguments changes (or adds) the key/value pair to 
the config file and returns the I<new> value.
In case of C<first-win> or C<last-win>, the respective occurrence
of the key is changed, and the others left intact. In this case only
the first C<$value> is used.

In case of C<multiple> the C<$values> are assigned to the keys in the 
order of occurrence in the file. If extra values are present, they
are added. If on the contrary less values then already existing
keys are passed, the remaining keys are deleted.

=item B<< $conffile->rename_key($oldkey, $newkey) >>

Renames a key from C<$oldkey> to C<$newkey>. It does not automatically
save the new config file.

=item B<< $conffile->is_changed >>

Returns true (1) if some real change has happened in the configuration file,
that is a value has been changed to something different, or a new
setting has been added.

Note that changing a setting back to the original one will not reset
the changed flag.

=item B<< $conffile->save >>

Saves the config file, preserving as much structure and comments of 
the original file as possible.

=item B<< $conffile->reparse >>

Reparses the configuration file.

=head1 EXAMPLES

For parsing a C<texmf.cnf> file you can use

  $tmfcnf = TeXLive::TLConfFile->new(".../texmf-dist/web2c", "[#%]", "=");

since the allowed comment characters for texmf.cnf files are # and %.
After that you can query keys:

  $tmfcnf->value("TEXMFMAIN");
  $tmfcnf->value("trie_size", 900000);
