Re: Basic install problem

Thanks for the help, Pierre-Alain. I tweaked my include path, and pear's now working, but I'm left wih the impression that the documentation could use some work! Unless there's some neat trick to using pear without include/require commands, most of the docs examples won't work. For example, I wanted to try out the Mail_RFC822 class. If I just copy the examples from the docs here: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/core.mail.rfc822.php They won't work because they can't find the Mail classes. So I added: require("Mail.php"); But that doesn't help, even though Mail_RFC822 is a part of the mail package. So after some rummaging through the code in Mail.php, I found references to the RFC822 class, so I amended my require to: require("Mail/RFC822.php"); and I'm glad to report that it now works. This doesn't seem to be documented anywhere, even though it's completely fundamental to having pretty much anything in pear actually work. Does this pattern apply to the whole of pear? Can I request that any examples include the necessary include commands to make them work without such tweaking? Also, how can I contribute to documentation?
