Hi,
PHP code that use the backtick operator or shell_exec() will behave identically.
The reason is that when omitting the optional parameter $return_code, the
function call shell_exec("command", null) is executed, which will
execute the "command" and return its output just like it does right now.
Thanks,
Luca
