DESCRIPTION

       Set up the skeleton of a CGI::Application-based project, including a module, some
       templates and some automated tests.

       By default the skeleton files will come within a shared directory where
       Module::Starter::Plugin::CGIApp is stored.  See File::ShareDir for more information on how
       this works.

CONFIGURATION

       cgiapp-starter will look for a configuration file before reading its command line
       parameters.  The default location is "$HOME/.module-starter/config" but if the
       MODULE_STARTER_DIR environment variable is set, cgiapp-starter will look for "config" in
       that directory.

       The configuration file is just a list of names and values, separated by colons.  Values
       that take lists are just space separated.  A sample configuration file might read:

        author: Jaldhar H. Vyas
        email: jaldhar@braincells.com
        template_dir: ~/.module-starter/cgiapp/templates
        colors: red green blue

       This format may become more elaborate in the future, but a file of this type should remain
       valid.
