Help for PEAR

I am trying to install the PEAR packageSpreadsheet_Excel_Writer using the
command:
pear install Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer
and I'm getting the error:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to
allocate 35 bytes) in C:\wamp\php\PEAR\System.php on line 255

I've seen suggestions to use:
peardev install Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer
but that just seems to hang there.

Any suggestions as to the best place to post for assistance on this?

Note that 8388608 bytes is exactly 8 megabytes, so I would suspect
that
memory_limit is to blame. Open your php.ini and increase the current
value of memory_limit from its current setting "8M" to, say, "32M".
That should take care of your problem.

Cheers,

It is set at 100M. PEAR ignores the php.ini file. PEARDEV is supposed
to honour it.
