.SH EXAMPLES
.TP 5
php -r "echo 'Hello World';"
This command simply writes the text "Hello World" to stabdard out.
.TP
php -d html_errors=1 -i | php -R 'echo strip_tags($argn)."\\n";'
This example uses PHP first to generate a HTML output. This is
meant to be replaced with any tool that displays HTML (for instance
you could use 'cat file.html'). The second php command now strips off
the HTML tags line by line and outputs the result.
.TP
php -E 'echo "Lines: $argi\\n";'
This command shows the number of lines being input.
.TP
php -R '@$l+=count(file($argn));' -E ' echo "Lines: $l\\n";'
This commands expects each input line beeing a file. It counts all lines
of the files specified by each input line and shows the summarized result.
You may combine this with tools like find and change the php scriptlet.
.SH TIPS
You can use a shebang line to automatically invoke php
from scripts. Only the CLI version of PHP will ignore
such a first line as shown below:
.P
.PD 0
#!/bin/php
.P
<?php
.P
// your script
.P
?>
