Re: Installing PEAR

(sorry for top post) As he mentioned using lynx ( and I'm assuming the OS rather than the browser here, as I'm not aware of the browser having those sorts of capabilities) then could it be that all the pear packages don't exist? Mostly, pear packages can just be copied into your app directories or in an include path that apache is aware of and things will just work, so that might be a viable solution if the repositories don't work out.
