E.g. CASE sensitive for AppConfig::Args but CASE insensitive for AppConfig::File. * AppConfig::State may need to have CMDARG re-introduced. When using blocks, it will be considerably more convenient to say '-v' rather than -block_verbose. The global CMDARG could be a template of the form '%c', to indicate the first character, for example. #------------------------------------------------------------------------ General * Change _pedantic() and _debug() calls in AppConfig::* constructors to direct $state->{ XXX } lookups. We are friends, after all and the current approach is likely to be rather inefficient. #------------------------------------------------------------------------ Test Suite * Modify file expansion tests to determine if getpwnam() etc are working or not. #------------------------------------------------------------------------
