I like the '$' prefix. Indeed it should be extended as Roland pointed out. For example it would be interesting to split output data directory according to data format or data size. I would set then out2D_dir = ${parfile}_2D or ${parfile}_asc. Or maybe we want to read an input file set as input_dir = $ENV{HOME}/path/to/input/file. It would be quite useful. Anyways, just adding a thought to this mix.
