text correctly.
Configure Command './configure' '--prefix=/usr'
'--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs' '--with-mod_charset'

'--with-config-file-path=/usr/local/apache/conf' '--enable-safe-mode'
'--with-openssl' '--enable-bcmath' '--with-bz2'
'--enable-calendar'
'--enable-ctype' '--with-gdbm' '--enable-dbase'
'--enable-ftp'
'--with-gmp' '--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql' '--with-xml=shared'
'--with-readline=/usr' '--enable-shmop' '--enable-sockets'
'--with-regex=php' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm'
'--enable-yp'
'--enable-memory-limit' '--with-tsrm-pthreads' '--enable-shared'
'--disable-debug' '--with-zlib=/usr' '--enable-exif'
'--enable-xml'
'--with-expat' '--with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2002b' '--with-mcrypt'
'--with-gd' '--with-snmp'
