You could also use a conf file for all those entries....
Even if it looks as simple as this:
Code:
var1="param_name1"
var2="param_name2"
...

While just reading from such a file is very easy using IFS="=" and a while read, any kind of 'dynamic' reading of a certain variable might become more complex.

There is the option to save each entry into a single file.

I just had help to avoid shell injection with my scripts regarding conf file modification Reading and Writing a conf file - Suggestions and improvements?.

Their function:
Code:
# List all variables (NOT values!)
tui-conf-get -l "FILE"

# Get value
tui-conf-get "FILE" "VAR"

# Set value
tui-conf-set "FILE" "VAR" "VAL"

Maybe they could be of help?
