[nyphp-talk] Variable composition: ${'foo'.$i}

2014-01-27 Thread Ron Guerin
Is the only name I've found for this: ${'foo'.$i} Which, if $i is 2, gives the value of the variable $foo2 Since "variable composition" only has one hit in Google though, there's got to be another name for it. Anyone know what that might be? - Ron __

[nyphp-talk] OS X home directory PHP-CLI

2012-02-21 Thread Ron Guerin
I don't have a Mac, and I haven't turned up much useful in Google, so I'm hoping someone here has written a CLI PHP script for OS X. I understand that you can't count on HOME to be set. Is there a reliable way to find the user's home directory on OS X in PHP? - Ron __

I tried searching the archive first, and I don't think this has come up before... I've had a couple of requests to add translations to an open source (GPL) project, and I'd like to implement it provided it's not going to become some kind of ongoing burden to me or turn the application into a resou
