Excellent idea, thanks!
I was using perl's YAML module to just dump a hash:
print Dump( {
parameters=> \%parameters
} );
Now I'm just producing the output myself:
print "---\nparameters:\n";
foreach my $key (sort keys %parameters) {
if (defined $parameters{$key}) {
print " $key: \"$parameters{$key}\"\n";
}
}
I'm not quite sure how to tell YAML module to treat everything as a string
(stringify didn't seem to cut the mustard), but this workaround does the
trick.
