This class is use to load a configuration file (config.xml) and the servers list file (servers.xml). It only encapsulate the XMLin() method of XML::Simple, there is no accessors or treatment method for this class. There is only a constructor which take only one argument : the name of the configuration file.

    my $config = Slackware::Slackget::Config->new('/etc/slack-get/config.xml') or die "cannot load config.xml\n";
    print "I will use the encoding: $config->{common}->{'file-encoding'}\n";
