Why not make mandatory the use of "dirname(__FILE__)" prepended to includes of other PEAR libraries?In short: It makes things less flexible for the developer. The way things are now the developer can partially replace PEAR files by simply putting a modified version of the given file into the include path before the PEAR include path. We have added a "set_include_path()" function just for this task to help people where shared hosts have disabled "ini_set()". regards, Lukas
