Shell-Var-Reader

Lets say '/usr/local/etc/someconfig.conf' which is basically a shell config and read via include in a sh or bash script, this can be used for getting a hash ref conttaining them.

Similarly on systems like FreeBSD, this is also useful for reading '/etc/rc.conf'.

As it currently stands, it does not understand bash arrays.

use Shell::Var::Reader;
use Data::Dumper;

my $found_vars=Shell::Var::Reader->read_in('/usr/local/etc/someconfig.conf');

print Dumper($found_vars);
