If by script you mean "bash script", you could use the echo and read 
commands to query the user. And for manipulating config files you could 
use e.g. sed if the config file is a text file. Please have a look at 
these URLs for more details:

<http://www.gnu.org/software/sed/manual/html_node/index.html>

If you don't mean a bash script, please clarify which script language 
you are interested in.
