sorry i was unclear. i meant exactly what you explained. there is a common
routine php_sscanf_internal which does all the dirty work for both fscanf()
and sscanf(). all both routines need to do is pass it parameters.

like i said, just waiting to be granted access. if you'd like, i can either
attach it to a message or email it to you...
