You might also want to have a look at Augeas, similar idea,
written in C and comes with a nice command line tool. Augeas works with existing file formats
through a series of flexible modular extensions called "lenses", eg. there are lenses for all the usual
/etc files found on a typical Linux system.
The command line interface is neat too. See this example.

I've been meaning to mount Augeas since I dug into it a while back. I think that the XQuery/XUpdate stuff in libferris working on a ferris mounted Augeas would be kind of a fun toy :)
The "another" in the first line might incorrectly imply that there was a shameless promotion of a first Red Hat project in the article. Anyway...
