I completely agree. fscanf() is for advanced users but one example with fgets() and fscanf() will be better IMHO. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-05 07:21:27] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Note: there should be an another one with fgets() IMHO. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-05 07:11:40] [EMAIL PROTECTED] sorry STDIN instead of $STDIN ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-05 07:08:31] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, few minutes ago I was asked by a friend : "How can I read the user input in CLI?" He proposed this : <?php print "enter:\n"; $r = fread(STDIN, 100); print $r; ?> but....the user has to enter EOF (Ctrl-Z on Windows, Ctrl-D on *nix). This is not intuitive. So after some thinking I created this : <?php print "enter:\n"; fscanf($STDIN, "%d\n",$r); //reading a number print $r; ?> I haven't found an example about that issue on the CLI SAPI page.
