No, I'm not joking. The file is a bash script, and hence can just be
sourced by another bash script, which could then print the relevant
information in any desired format.

I'll try it out.
However, as bash doesn't know net syntax, I'd still have to go the extra-mile for stuff such as extracting IP from the config_ variable, when that also contains a netmask (e.g. CIDR notation or "netmask" definition following the ip).
