I've put my config info in a module and call it in my instance script 
like so:

	use APP::SetUp 1.0;

Then I use this info in my app script like so:

	$output .= $APP::SetUp::page_footer;

Is this what you mean by "or just provide it
from some global perl configuration variables"?

If not, Is there anything wrong with what I'm doing?

In any case, I'd really like to see something like "$self->config" with 
a simple example of a config file. If you mean I can change the above 
to:

	$output .= $self->config('page_footer');

This make perfect sense to me. It "feels" (to me) like this should be 
basic piece of any solid framework, and I think it would make it easier 
to setup even small apps.

Cheers,

Bill
