+ As of PHP 4.3.0, the <literal>PHP</literal> variables
+<literal>$argc</literal>
+ and <literal>$argv</literal> are registered and filled in with the
+appropriate
+ values when using the <literal>CLI SAPI</literal>. Before this time
+ the creation of these variables behaved as they do in
+ <literal>CGI</literal> and <literal>MODULE</literal> versions
+ which requires the PHP directive
+ <link linkend="ini.register-globals">register_globals</link> to
+ be <emphasis>on</emphasis>. Regardless of version or register_globals
+ setting you can always go through either
+ <link linkend="reserved.variables.server">$_SERVER</link> or
+ <varname>$HTTP_SERVER_VARS</varname>. Example:
+ <varname>$_SERVER['argv']</varname>
