Forgive me for injecting my $.02 here but what is the original reason for changing the most basic language syntax to be a little bit shorter?
Is it hurting anyone to type out "array()" or something? I think it is silly that "shortening array syntax" is up for discussion but ensuring Unicode compatibility isn't a higher priority. Not to mention named parameters in functions. Or Consistent naming for functions str_* vs str*, needle/haystack ordering, etc. If you're wanting to augment or change fundamentals of the language why not clean some stuff up there first? -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
