pear is actually like CPAN - but for PHP. I didn't have the said download directory on my FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE machine, but going to /usr/ports/devel/pear and doing make all install clean sure does create the directory and the files inside. That directory is basically used when pear is downloading modules (hope that's what they're called).

Try "pear help" for more details. -- patrick _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
