Description:
------------
In the documentation in chapter Config::parseConfig() it says:
string $configType Type of configuration to parse

That's it. But it would be very helpful to list the available configuration types here so you do not have to search at Google or GoogleGroups or in the source code of Config to find the supported configuration types.

Just add:
Available configuration types are:
"Apache", "GenericConf", "IniCommented", "IniFile", "PHPArray", "XML"

The same at Config_Container::writeDatasrc() and Config::writeConfig(). If you do not want to change it at each page you can even add a new page containing all supported formats and add hyperlinks to the method pages.

Thanks very much.

Expected result:
----------------
Others may find supported configuration types faster and can use the Config class directly without searching in news groups and source codes.

I've created a patch with the new documentation at
http://www.adamashley.name/stuff/doco-available-config-types.diff

Finding out how to get it committed to peardoc now.
