A boolean indicating whether or not to prefer command line programs 
over perl modules. Defaults to 'false' unless you do not have 
C<Compress::Zlib> installed (as that would mean we could not extract
C<.tar.gz> files)

        ### if we dont have c::zlib, we'll need to use /bin/tar or we
        ### can not extract any files. Good time to change the default

                                (eval {require Compress::Zlib; 1} ? 0 : 1 );

=item prefer_makefile

A boolean indicating whether or not prefer a C<Makefile.PL> over a 
C<Build.PL> file if both are present. Defaults to 'true'.

=cut

        $Conf->{'conf'}->{'prefer_makefile'} = 0;

=item prereqs

A digit indicating what to do when a package you are installing has a
prerequisite. Options are:

    0   Do not install
    1   Install
    2   Ask
    3   Ignore  (dangerous, install will probably fail!)

The default is to ask.

=cut

        $Conf->{'conf'}->{'prereqs'} = PREREQ_INSTALL;

=item shell

A string holding the shell class you wish to start up when starting
C<CPANPLUS> in interactive mode.

Defaults to C<CPANPLUS::Shell::Default>, the default CPANPLUS shell.

=cut

        $Conf->{'conf'}->{'shell'} = 'CPANPLUS::Shell::Default';

=item show_startup_tip

A boolean indicating whether or not to show start up tips in the 
interactive shell. Defaults to 'true'.

=cut

        $Conf->{'conf'}->{'show_startup_tip'} = 1;

=item signature

A boolean indicating whether or not check signatures if packages are
signed. Defaults to 'true' if you have C<gpg> or C<Crypt::OpenPGP> 
installed, 'false' otherwise.

=cut

        $Conf->{'conf'}->{'signature'} = do {
            check_install( module => 'Module::Signature', version => '0.06' )
            and ( can_run('gpg') || 
                  check_install(module => 'Crypt::OpenPGP')
            );
        } ? 1 : 0;

=item skiptest

A boolean indicating whether or not to skip tests when installing modules.
Defaults to 'false'.

=cut

        $Conf->{'conf'}->{'skiptest'} = 0;

=item storable

A boolean indicating whether or not to use C<Storable> to write compiled
source file information to disk. This makes for faster startup and look
up times, but takes extra diskspace. Defaults to 'true' if you have 
C<Storable> installed and 'false' if you don't.

=cut

       $Conf->{'conf'}->{'storable'} = 
                        ( check_install( module => 'Storable' ) ? 1 : 0 );

=item timeout

Digit indicating the time before a fetch request times out (in seconds).
Defaults to 300.

=cut

        $Conf->{'conf'}->{'timeout'} = 300;

=item verbose

A boolean indicating whether or not C<CPANPLUS> runs in verbose mode.
Defaults to 'true' if you have the environment variable 
C<PERL5_CPANPLUS_VERBOSE> set to true, 'false' otherwise.

It is recommended you run with verbose enabled, but it is disabled
for historical reasons.

=cut

        $Conf->{'conf'}->{'verbose'} = $ENV{PERL5_CPANPLUS_VERBOSE} || 0;

=item write_install_log

A boolean indicating whether or not to write install logs after installing
a module using the interactive shell. Defaults to 'true'.


=cut

        $Conf->{'conf'}->{'write_install_logs'} = 1;

=item source_engine

Class to use as the source engine, which is generally a subclass of
