Uniformity ... there are lots of parsers for editing config files hidden in various tools; they all give you a completely different "API" for changing config files. And usually you can't get to them for any other purpose than what the tool is written for. Case in point: Webmin has a _ton_ of these config file editors in it. Good luck trying to use those, even assuming you are working from a Perl script (and better luck keeping that working across Webmin releases) David -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
