I want to start making a script from scratch. However I have some questions first before begin since if you want to create something possibly big, you better have a compatible and the most efficient script system. I wish not to use the default one because I have seen better ones released here.
I want to ask you guys:
1. What is the best I/O include to manage script files?
2. What is the best command processor?
3. What are the additional things that I need for the server? Suggest me server system stuff like MySQL system or whatever that you personally prefer.

1.) It all depends on what you prefer. If you like, and know how to use MySQL I would recommend MySQL, or even SQLite. But the INI systems are good too.
2.) Honestly, I only use ZCMD, but I know that YCMD has a lot more to it. I would say that YCMD is the best, but ZCMD is easiest to use.
3.) Try not to do too many loops, also try not to have to many variables. (These will make the server lag.)

1. y_ini for ini files
y_xml for xml files
blueg mysql plugin r20+ for MySQL DBMS
2. ycmd or zcmd
3. crashdetect and profiler plugins, and whole ysi library

Thanks you two for the recommendations. I hope to see more especially for question #3.

1) I prefer and recommend MySQL (by BlueG) because it allows more control over all of your data.
2) I don't like the whole YSI library because ****** over-complicates pretty much everything. I know YCMD is faster but very slightly. I recommend ZCMD.
3) Crashdetect, nativechecker, streamer, and sscanf are the most common and useful plugins I've seen so I recommend those.
