From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: PHP version: 4.1.1 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: println?
I'm in the midst of doing quite a bit of shell/command line stuff with PHP, and I think it would be kind of useful to have a println construct, much like in Java or a number of other languages. println is identical to print, but a newline/carriage return is appended to the output. I know I could just write function in PHP or even a function in an extension to provide the same functionality, but it might as well be in the language itself, if only because it may be used often enough to warrant inclusion. (I know I'd use it all the time.) I started trying to add it myself (I can see that it would go in the Zend engine, correct?) but after reminding myself that I've never used Lex before (nor really looked at the Zend code) I decided that this would be best left to someone who actually knows what they're doing when it comes to the Zend engine. The only problem I can think of is portability, specifically the oft-cursed differences between OS newline sequences. (Is it \n? \r\n? \n\r? Dammit?!) Doesn't seem like a huge issue, though, does it?
