while(){
next if /^\s*(#.*)?$/; # Skip it if just comment or blank
s/#.*$//; # remove comments
($key,$value)=split/\s+/,$_,2; # Get exactly two values out
$config{$key}=$value; # Load into a hash for use.

RE: excluding comments in a line
How about splitting the line.
@lines = ("foo=bar # stuff", "bar=foo # more stuff");
foreach (@lines) {
my ($line) = split(/\s*#/);
print "$line\n";
}

Subject: excluding comments in a line
Folks,
I am reading in a .cfg file and exclude comments (#) and spaces at the
beginning of the line
how would I lop off any comments in a line?
IE:
Key "value" # comment here
Regards,
Ron
