I think that having double quotes working like in php is a good and safe thing. It could be too tricky (or pointless) to have to deal with two kind of backslashes, depending on the context. Especially as (and Johannes should have mentioned it in his mail) the fix is as easy than: include_path=c:\foo\bar\ or include_path="c:/foo/bar/" Cheers, -- Pierre http://blog.thepimp.net | http://www.libgd.org
