Augeas is a configuration API. Augeas is a configuration API. Here are some key features of "Augeas": Augeas is: · An API provided by a C library · A command line tool to manipulate configuration from the shell (and shell scripts) · Language bindings to do the same from your favorite scripting language · Canonical tree representations of common configuration files · A domain-specific language to describe configuration file formats Augeas goals: · Manipulate configuration files safely, safer than the ad-hoc techniques generally used with grep, sed, awk and similar mechanisms in scripting languages · Provide a local configuration API for Linux · Make it easy to integrate new config files into the Augeas tree What's New in This Release: · The tree->file transformation can now insert quotes etc. as needed. · Path expressions support preceding-sibling and following-sibling axes, to, for example, locate a comment just before or after a specific entry. · A much better lens was provided for xorg.conf along with new lenses for inetd.conf and multipath.conf. · Augeas now works on AIX.
