WHAT IS THIS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This library provides a virtual equivalent to the Windows 95/98/NT registry.
It is coded entirely in PERL and uses a text base storage system.  It is not
designed for large scale enterprise applications by any means, but it is
more than adequately sufficient for almost any PERL task.

It's purpose is to eliminate the need for conf and rc files in large-scale
PERL applications.  I designed it specifically for use with the Web Control
Panel which will be released soon.  With a little user-side inginuity it
can easily be used to store not only simple key/values, but store entire
arrays and hashes.  While it does not directly support this, it is easily
implemented.

To begin using it, you need to change the line that defines where the
registry file you will use will reside.  After that, you can begin using it
without further configuration.

COPYRIGHT/LEGAL JUNK

If you make any modifications to this software I require you send them to me
so that this library can be made better for everyone.  Also, if you use this
for any practical use, let me know because I love success stories.  Other
than that, this software is completely free.  You may distribute it with
commercial applications as long as it remains in its source-code form and as
long as this README file (including copyright information) is not removed
and/or altered in any way.  I don't require you give me anything in exchange
for using this, though a postcard or praise or criticism or whatever is
appreciated.
