Eh, I think that would be the 'installas' option... 'installas' => array('foo' => 'bar') will install foo as bar instead. I'm not sure how well it works with whole directories though. The end result would be something like what Ken Guest has for the PEAR_Size package.xml file: http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/pear/PEAR_Size/package.xml?view=markup Maybe that will send you down the right path. -- Brett Bieber http://saltybeagle.com/
