Comments are not bad :-)

navgen.cli is only a helper script which is started by the
user only when something has changed on the navigation
structure. It generates a php array description which
contains the file relations on the web site.
navgen.php is obsolete. I have removed this from cvs by now.

All *.php and *.inc files are executed at the server
site. This means comments and long variable names will not
be transmitted to the user and does therefore not effect
loading times. Only the echo and print commands in these
files produce traffic to the user (but navgen.cli never).

If you want to reduce the traffic you need to look in the
php output not in the sources. But I don't think that there
is much which can be removed in there.

BTW: I prefer spaces instead of tabs since they have
the same size indepent from editor settings. What do you use
for the fvwm souce files?

Regards, Uwe
