Custom Scripts Mechanism

Any scripts that are called directly via a url (eg index.php, user/view.php) 
can now be customised by placing a file with the same name (including directories) in 
my_moodle_data_dir/customscripts
For example:
my_moodle_data_dir/customscripts/index.php; my_moodle_data_dir/customscripts/user/view.php

• this is for people making short term changes to VISIBLE web pages in the moodle source code
  • better to use cvs or cogito for long term management of customisations to moodle code

• it seems to have been used extensively only by the Moodle_for_Mobiles project

• to enable Custom Scripts, add $CFG->customscript=path/to/customscript/folder (see Configuration_file)
