[phpesp-dev] .ini?

[randall e. <ra...@uc...>]

hi,
 i have a few questions about the filestructure & setup of phpESP...

 1) is there any reasoning to have the config file be a .ini instead of say a
.php so that there is no concern about it getting parsed as cleartext?

 2) has anyone thought about using a global to define the filesystem
locations? seems like it would require much less editing to use something like
the horde.org's setup:

define('PHPESP_BASE', dirname(__FILE__));
$locale_path  = PHPESP_BASE . "/locale/";
$include_path = PHPESP_BASE . "/include/";
...

 3) any thoughts on importing adodb (http://php.weblogs.com/ADODB) so multiple
databases could be used as the backend storage?

 thanks,
