  Added files:
    .                    cfg.pm 
  Log:
  Add a configuration file for customising the perl scripts.  To use
  it put the following at the top of the perl script:
  
  	use lib $ENV{CVSROOT};
  	use CVSROOT::cfg;
  
  The config variables can then be referenced from the script by
  refering to them in the cfg package space, i.e. $cfg::TEMPLATE_HEADER.
  
  The choice was taken to write it in perl, instead of plain text,
  because it saves extra code in each script to parse the file, and
  additionally it allows the user extra flexibility enabling the user
  to create a dynamic configuration file that depends upon the host
  it's running on, for instance.
  
  Please read the warning in the file about making sure that it passes
  the perl syntax check (perl -c) before commiting updates to it.
