You can use (my) go-pear (the web one) with CLI too. (But why not use the web one? ;)) You can run the CLI version on command line and install the PEAR Installer (even if you allready have it installed, upgrading makes sense, cause a lot of development was done on it). After installting, you got a "pear" command. Try "pear" to see what commands are supported. "pear config-show" and "pear install" will be a good place to start. Thanks for your interest. If you have any problems, report them and we will try to fix them. Christian Dickmann
