Thanks for your reply. I'm not sure I fully understand it - I have no previous experience with php - and I don't need it right now for practical reasons, since the project I worked on has been canceled. I just wanted to ask this to find out if the webhost was wrong in doing what they did - and in to warn others. Gigahost send me a reply saying that the are working on it so they won't have to disallow it in the future. I'm not really dissatisfied that they don't allow it - but I'm am very dissatisfied that I was not warned/informed about this properly by them.
So I don't need GS right now - and I didn't get to use it very much - but my impression of it is really positive and I will have that in mind if I want to use a file-based CMS again. Thumbs up for the great work
