I am new to PHP. It is not apart of the Pear modules. You can download
Smarty form their website: http://smarty.php.net

The above include statement has nothing to do with any combination of
the two packages. It just happens that you need to have them on a
include statement in you ini..

I have both and my include path looks like this:
include_path =".;C:\php\PEAR\pear;C:\Program Files\smarty\libs;"

Do not know but the docs should tell you. You could uninstall the
packages and reinstall but that maybe overkill.
