Thanks for your help! :-)

I got it working, but I think, this info has to be part of the wiki and/or the  
docu. Same with format of the parsed config file. Values in string format has 
to be in dopple quotes, like this:
Key = "Value"

BTW: Settings() is a really cool function, saved me 40 lines of my own code in 
perl, respectively a perl module! :-))))

Erhm....what's about improving the docs???  *cover&hide* :-)
