+.IX Subsection "Converting your existing config to Config::General format"
+As of Catalyst::Devel 1.07, a newly created application will use
+Config::General for configuration. If you wish to convert your existing
+config, run the following one-liner (replacing MyApp with your app's name):
+.PP
+.Vb 1

+.IX Subsection "Using UTF-8 strings in a Config::General file"
+If you have \s-1UTF\-8\s0 strings in your Config::General\-based config file, you
+should add the following config information to MyApp.pm:
+.PP
+.Vb 5
+\& __PACKAGE__\->config( 'Plugin::ConfigLoader' => {
+\& driver => {
+\& 'General' => { \-UTF8 => 1 },
+\& }
+\& } );
+.Ve
+.Sh "Using a local configuration file"
+.IX Subsection "Using a local configuration file"
+When ConfigLoader reads configurations, it starts by reading the configuration
+file for \f(CW\*(C`myapp\*(C'\fR with one of the supported extensions as listed
+above.
+.PP
+For example, A Config::General config file is \f(CW\*(C`myapp.conf\*(C'\fR.
+.PP
+If a configuration file called \f(CW\*(C`myapp_local\*(C'\fR exists with one of the supported
+file extensions, it will also be read, and values from that file will
+override values from the main config file.
+.PP
+A Config::General local configuration file would be called
+\&\f(CW\*(C`myapp_local.conf\*(C'\fR.
+.PP
+The \f(CW\*(C`local\*(C'\fR suffix can be changed. See
+\&\*(L"get_config_local_suffix\*(R" in Catalyst::Plugin::ConfigLoader for the details of
+how.
+.PP
+This is useful because it allows different people or environments to have
+different configuration files. A project with three developers,
+\&\fITom\fR, \fIDick\fR, and \fIHarry\fR as well as a production environment can have
+a \f(CW\*(C`myapp_tom.conf\*(C'\fR, a \f(CW\*(C`myapp_dick.conf\*(C'\fR, a \f(CW\*(C`myapp_harry.conf\*(C'\fR, and a
+\&\f(CW\*(C`myapp_production.conf\*(C'\fR.
+.PP
+Each developer, and the web server, would set the environment variable
+to load their proper configuration file. All of the configurations can
+be stored properly in source control.
+.PP
+If there is no \f(CW\*(C`myapp.local\*(C'\fR, and the individual configuration files contain
+something required to start the application, such as the Model's data source
+definition, the applicaton won't start unless the environment variable
+is set properly.
