[TYPO3-dev] Creating pages in Typo3 with external script

[Alexander Födisch]

Hi all,

thanks for your answers and hints. Sure, the best way would be TCEmain. But therefor I need a TYPO3 backend 
context, right?
But I have to integrate the creation of TYPO3 pages (and users with their filemounts) into another software 
for simplifying processes. :-(

Best,
Alex
