NAME

    Config::INI::Reader::Multiline - Parser for .ini files with continuation lines

SYNOPSIS

    If act.ini contains:

        [general]

        conferences = ye2003 fpw2004 \

                      apw2005 fpw2005 hpw2005 ipw2005 npw2005 ye2005 \

                      apw2006 fpw2006 ipw2006 npw2006

        cookie_name = act

        searchlimit = 20

    And your program does:

        my $config = Config::INI::Reader::Multiline->read_file('act.ini');

    Then $config contains:

        {

            general => {

                cookie_name => 'act',

                conferences => 'ye2003 fpw2004 apw2005 fpw2005 hpw2005 ipw2005 npw2005 ye2005 apw2006 fpw2006 ipw2006 npw2006',

                searchlimit => '20'

            }

        }

DESCRIPTION

    Config::INI::Reader::Multiline is a subclass of Config::INI::Reader that

    offers support for line continuations, i.e. adding a "\"

    (backslash-newline) at the end of a line to indicate the newline should be

    removed from the input stream and ignored.

    In this implementation, the backslash can be followed and preceded by

    whitespace, which will be ignored too (just as whitespace is trimmed by

    Config::INI::Reader.
