There's a similar mechanism supported by cme which is named "layered configuration". This was developed for multistrap whose's configuration uses base configuration files and override files. This is also used by ssh model where ~/.ssh/config overrides the values defined in /etc/ssh/config I admit that this feature is somewhat underdocumented [1] :-/ All the best [1] http://search.cpan.org/dist/Config-Model-Itself/lib/Config/Model/models/Itself/ConfigRead.pod#default_layer_-_How_to_find_default_values_in_a_global_config_file and http://search.cpan.org/dist/Config-Model/lib/Config/Model/Value/LayeredInclude.pm -- https://github.com/dod38fr/config-model/ -o- http://search.cpan.org/~ddumont/ http://ddumont.wordpress.com/ -o- irc: dod at irc.debian.org
