[wp-hackers] require & include question!

[Robert Deaton]

The constant ABSPATH in wordpress points to the directory that
wordpress is installed in. So, if you wanted to add the folder in
wp-includes, you could do an include/require call like this:

include(ABSPATH . 'wp-includes/PEAR/' . $filetoinclude);

where $filetoinclude is the name of the file you want to include or
require. Also, if you just wanted to throw them in a subdirectory of
the plugins directory, you could do :

$curpath = dirname(__FILE__).'/';

and then use 
require($curpath . 'PEAR/' . $filetoinclude)
