/*
 * This file contains four procedures used to read config-files.
 *
 * char * config_open(const char *filename,int contlines)
 *	Will open the named file, read it into a private malloc'ed area,
 *	and close the file again.
 *	All lines where the first !isspace() char is '#' are deleted.
 *	If contlines are non-zero lines where the first char is isspace()
 *	will be joined to the preceeding line.
 *	In case of trouble the name of the offending system call will be
 *	returned.  On success NULL is returned.
 *
 * void   config_close()
 *	This will free the internal malloc'ed area.
 *
 * char * config_next()
 *	This will return a pointer to the next entry in the area.  NULL is
 *	returned at "end of file".  The return value is '\0' terminated, and
 *	can be modified, but the contents must be copied somewhere else for
 *	permanent use.
 *
 * char * config_skip(char **p)
 *	This will pick out the next word from the string.  The return-value
 *	points to the word found, and *p is advanced past the word.  NULL is
 *	returned at "end of string".
 *
 * Many programs have a n*100 bytes config-file and N*1000 bytes of source
 * to read it.  Doing pointer-aerobics on files that small is a waste of
 * time, and bashing around with getchar/ungetc isn't much better.  These
 * routines implement a simple algorithm and syntax.
 *
 * config_skip consider a contiguous string of !isspace() chars a word.
