.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
.B configpp
generates an application configuration file from a variable definitions
file and a symbolic configuration file.
.PP
The variable definitions file should contain name-value pairs, one per
line:
   NAME="VALUE"
.PP
The symbolic configuration file should contain ordinary text, with
variables represented by the form ${NAME} wherever they should be
filled in. The curly braces may be omitted if whitespace follows
the name of the variable. The shell escape characters $, \, and `
should be escaped (with a \) whenever they should appear literally
in the text.
.PP
Note: the application configuration file will have permissions set to 644
