+IniConf provides a way to have readable configuration files outside your
+Perl script. The configuration can be safely reloaded upon receipt of a
+signal.
+
+USAGE
+
+Get a new IniConf object with the new method:
+
+ $cfg = IniConf->new( -file => "/path/configfile.ini" );
+ $cfg = new IniConf -file => "/path/configfile.ini";
+
+Optional named parameters may be specified after the configuration file
+name. See the new in the METHODS section, below. INI files consist of a
+number of sections, each preceeded with the section name in square brackets.
+Parameters are specified in each section as Name=Value. Any spaces around
+the equals sign will be ignored, and the value extends to the end of the
+line
