ah yes, permissions. heh.

You can add the files you want to run in a docroot controlled by binaryclou=
d
permissions to user/conf/file_permissions.conf

that has worked fine for me.

however, note that many of the redirect constants and other things assume
that you are running the distro htdocs/ as docroot. Funnily enough, it's a
real pain in the a** to make that all work because you have to constantly
check an BC_DOCROOT or similar constant for 0 length before using it.

I'm going to incorporate relative path support into r2, and while it can be
added to r1b, some other code would need to be fixed which I (unfortunately=
)
don't have the time to fix.

If you look at file_permissions.conf, and core/lib/breadcrumbs you'll see
how the permissions system deals with paths - in short, you'd have to add a
constant to the front of every entry in the perms array, and change some
code in breadcrumbs.

A user sent in a set of patches for the changes, I patched the files and
there were some bugs which I didn't have time to fix, so I removed the
patches.
