Can't we just drop the $ and have variables without a prefix character? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-02 08:11:50] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Because it was meant to be a joke :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-02 08:01:38] [EMAIL PROTECTED] by the way, pressing the $ key is much easyier as to press the euro € key. so why do that changing? efton http://www.efton.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-02 07:36:00] [EMAIL PROTECTED] :) But your eurosign came out as ^A here Derick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-02 06:55:16] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Until now PHP has used the $ prefix for variables what is clearly influenced by script languages such as Perl which have their roots in the USA. As PHP's core components, such as ZEND, are developed in Europe and many opinion leaders are from here I'd suggest to replace $ by the Euro sign € as of PHP5. Yes, this will break some of the existing scripts, but we might provide a tool which replaces all occurencies of $ by €. -- Daniel Lorch http://daniel.lorch.cc/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15343&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
