Req #70125 [Opn]: PHP Shebang

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70125&edit=1 ID: 70125 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: tuxy at vmail dot me Summary: PHP Shebang Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: Arch Linux PHP Version: 5.6.11 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: To me it doesn't make sense to introduce a special syntax for scripts starting with a shebang line. Either there'll be the possibility to have PHP code only files, or not. Actually, I'm fine with the latter, as that also can make sense for CLI scripts.
