The world is not only a > linux/apache/mysql world, afaik :-). BWT the fact that Apache supports this would have already drived other server/SAPI authors to support something like this. The fact that it's not supported means that either the server/SAPI maintainers don't care or have no time for this stuff (vhosts based configuration). Anyone who uses Apache with vhosts knows that vhost based configs are the greatest thing you can get. I would not like to start any flames here, don't misunderstand me. You are right that it's annoying, that many guys out there think that it's an Apache only world (hey I am also using it on windows ;), and that the settings needs to be portable. So then why to put the settings into the registry, as then you cannot just copy your program and settings to another machine, keeping in mind, that if you move that generated .reg file it *may* not be the exact thing from the registry (registry could have been modified after addign that reg file)? Windows registry is kind of a black magic thing for many guys out there, and things like how to export settings from the registry to move your setup to another computer may not be easy, and will drive the way to more and more support questions IMHO.
