No, I'm not joking. The file is a bash script, and hence can just be
sourced by another bash script, which could then print the relevant
information in any desired format.

if not, look at the iproute, netstat, etc etc
commands...

AFAIK, all those would only work once the interface is up. They don't
have the capability to just read cfg and emit what's there is some
usable form.

I'll try it out.
However, as bash doesn't know net syntax, I'd still have to go the
extra-mile for stuff such as extracting IP from the config_ variable,
when that also contains a netmask (e.g. CIDR notation or "netmask"
definition following the ip).

Wrote one in C,C++, Bash, Java or even PHP CLI ?? Try some...
This file is Bash script. Every line comes with some portion of "variable = variable data". It's realy simple. In PHP you can write simple script using explode functions or regexp's.
Good luck

Fastest way - dump into PHP, use some explodes and regexps.
Most secured - App i C++ or C.
Balanced Way - JAVA app

Programs written in c++/c are not inherently secure, the programmer
must make use of best practices using secure functions, etc.

Programs are not inherently secure, the programmer must make use of best
practices using secure functions, etc.
Yes, that's better. Much closer to the truth.
All languages are insecure, to about the same degree. The only difference is
the method of the attack vectors.
We use Von Neumann machines. "Inherently secure" is a pipe-dream with those
and will never exist.

I'm a bit slow in replying, but there's a Google SOC project to
integrate NetworkManager with Gentoo config files. Last time I looked
it seemed to be mostly working. There's a blog somewhere *looking*
http://qiaomuf.wordpress.com/
try that out. Don't think there's a command line interface to NM though
so don't know how your parsing will go...
