[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, I was wondering if there was any tool available in freebsd for handling information, specifically configuration files, package information and such. I know all information is available via text files however in order to access the information the program might have to hard code the retreval system (not being able to use a shared library). So: 1) What tools are there for accessing information (i.e. libraries)? 2) If so is there any unification of the interface? 3) If no to any of the above, is there a need for such tools and should it be a unified interface (not just specific subsets)?
