These settings are not meant to be used by the user, but by the progammer. I've 
stored Constants like names of cgi objects or strings that are used by the cgi 
libraries to specify the html version of the generated html code in these modules.

Anyway it doesn't matter what my classes in /lib want to acces. I am looking for 
a more elegant way to access classes in /settings from classes the are stored in 
/lib. 'require ../settings/globalsettings" ' ist not accepted by the compiler as 
I've alread said.
