Well now, I am confused because these pages: http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.require.php http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.require-once.php http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.include-once.php All show them as functions: Include(), require(), require_once(), include_once() Yet ALL of their examples show the PEAR way: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/standards.including.php include_once "a.php"; I opted to just do it anyways since it seems that is the "official" way. To change all require_once('foo.php'); to require_once 'foo.php' execute this: cd /var/www/ find . -name '*.php' -print | xargs egrep -l \ 'require_once\s*(\(.*\));'\ | xargs sed -i.sedorig -e \ 's/require_once\s*(\(.*\));/require_once \1;/' (thanks to Robert Hajime Lanning for that) Then to remove all the ".php.sedorig" backup files execute this: find . -name "*.php.sedorig" -type f -exec rm -rf {} \; I tried to post this note to here: http://us2.php.net/manual/add-note.php But the stupid-ass form says: "Your note contains a prohibited (usually SPAM) word. Please remove it and try again." WTF!? It doesn't even TELL me what f'n word is the problem. Seriously?
