This goes to show that good ideas usually win out and our system works. I proposed "cli/php.exe" on Windows back on December 9th, but there was a fear it would be a support nightmare. I take it those fears have subsided. I'm also glad that limb I went out on didn't break afterall. I'd say that I fully support this proposal but I'm not sure my opinion matters. ;) Leon -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
