Before I reinvent the wheel, is there any tool (or module on which such a tool could be easily written) that has capabilities similar to sysf)?
Basically what sysf does is let you manage system files for multiple linux systems from a central repository, sharing files that are common and providing the ability to override files that differ. It supports some nice features such as the ability to diff the repository against the current configuration for a given machine, ability to archive current configuration, etc..
I've done some looking around on google and CPAN for something like this but have not found anything useful.
In reply to sysf in perl?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
