Dot.conf is a simple-to-use and powerful configuration-file parser library written in c. the configuration files created for dot.conf look very similar to those used by the apache webserver. even container-directives known from httpd.conf can easily be used in the exact same manner as for apache-modules. it supports various types of arguments, dynamically loadable modules that create their own configuration options on-the-fly, a here-documents feature to pass very long arg_str data to your app, and on-the-fly inclusion of additional config files.
