Module Layout/Design

[GIJew]

Hey All,

I looked around for something to steer me in the right direction but alas nothing has led me in the right direction.

I am working on a project (trying to teach myself more) and would like to create a module/plug-in directory.

Let us say that I have a directory with all of my main files. I would like to have a modules/[module name]/[files] setup.

I thought about using functions for all of my modules and calling them with a switch statement through a modules.php page. I am however still learning so the dynamics of it are causing me some problems.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
