It all installs fine, but now I'm wondering exactly how to use pear install. I used to have PEAR installed in /System/Library/PHP (under Mac OS X), but I made a backup of it before I installed PEAR from CVS. I notice there are lots of files that didn't make it from CVS into my new PEAR directory, namely IT.php for templating. How exactly would one use the pear command to install the IT package, for example? (A better question is where do I get these packages, and what does a package look like?) Is there a way I can get a list of all available packages? I notice there's a login option, but I can't figure out how to create an account or why I would need one. -f -- Derek Fong Web Application Developer subtitle designs inc. <http://www.subtitled.com/> "Mistakes are the portals of discovery." --James Joyce >> GPG key/fingerprint available upon request <<
