dot.conf v1.0.0      http://www.azzit.de/dotconf/
=====================================================================

please refer to the API documentation in the doc/ directory of the
distribution. for several examples take a look at the pieces in examples/

The new version has a bunch of new features which will simply be 
enumerated below. For the API the doc/dotconf-api.txt

| Extended Parser
`-------->
    - indented comments                                         [*new*]
    - comments starting anywhere on the line                    [*new*]
    - line continuation (\-Escaped newline)                     [*new*]
    - escaping (via \)                                          [*new*] 
    - here documents
    - substitution of environment variables
	- both styles of quoting (' and ")

    Now the parser is Apache compatible (whoohoo ;) and supports some neat
    additional features.

| Extended Core API
`-------->
	- each configuration file works in its own environment      [*new*]
	- context sensitivity framework                             [*new*]
	- new API to allow customization of (almost) everything     [*new*]
	- module support
    - some builtin commands (Include, IncludePath)

	I'm contributing to the Mohawk Project by building a fully
	Apache compatible configfile I/O codebase. Of course am i using dot.conf :)
	During early development of the httpd.conf I/O i realized
	that dot.conf up to 0.7.x wasn't powerful enough. Therefore
	dot.conf 0.8.0 was created - and then made the first 1.0 release.
