editing PHP.ini

[Steph]

I need to add a line to my php.ini extensions section, but I'm not sure how to go about doing this. I have located my php.ini file, but I don't know how to proceed. Can anyone point me in the right direction ?

on linux/unix systems you can use the editor pico which is installed in most distributions.

at your prompt in the shell you can:

> pico -w php.ini

browse to the line where you want to edit,
with control+o you can save the current open document
with control+x you can edit the current open document
