Description:
------------
We can find tons of code with
$a = dirname(dirname($b));
$c = dirname(dirname(dirname(__DIR__)));
etc
Could be nice to be able to write
$a = dirname($b, 2);
$c = dirname(__DIR__, 3);
etc
Proposal: Add a new "nb" optional parameter.
Function [ <internal:standard> function dirname ] {
- Parameters [2] {
Parameter #0 [ <required> $path ]
Parameter #1 [ <optional> $nb ]
}
}
As a minor, self-contained change, could probably target 7.0
