your code should be portable
Except in reality, it probably isn't. Off the top of my head, think file
paths.
Which is why I mentioned the exec() family. Otherwise, relative
paths for includes will work regardless of the slash style (*nix / vs
Windows \) preferred by the OS. Or is my as-still non-caffeinated
brain missing something obvious here this morning?
Well exec() et-al aren't the only thing that use paths. You might have an include/require that begins with "C:\" for example.
