# render_doIdentityImageDm.sh -- This function standardize the way of
# retrive action values from pre-rendering configuration files. Use
# this function whenever you need to retrive action values from
# pre-rendering configuration script.
#
# Usage:
#
# VAR=$(render_getConfOption "ACTION" "FIELD")
#
# Where:
#
# VAR is the name of the variable you want to store the option
# value retrived from your specification, using
# render_getConfOption's ACTION and FIELD arguments. If there is
# no variable assignment, the function outputs the action value
# to standard output without trailing newline.
#
# ACTION is the string definition set in the pre-rendering
# configuration script holding the action name and its options
# fields.
#
# FIELD  is field number in the action string you want to
# retrive option from. By default options start from third field
# on. The first field is reserved for the action type (i.e.,
# BASE, POST, LAST), and the second field is reserved for the
# action itself (e.g., renderImage, renderFormats, etc.). Note
# that this convenction can be altered if the action string has
# been modified (e.g., you stript the BASE field from action
# string) and passed the modified action string to another
# function for processing.
