Bug #15343 Updated: Localization of PHP

ID: 15343 Updated by: derick@php.net Reported By: daniel@php.net Old Status: Open Status: Bogus Bug Type: Feature/Change Request PHP Version: 4.1.1 New Comment: :) But your eurosign came out as ^A here Derick Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-02 06:55:16] daniel@php.net Until now PHP has used the $ prefix for variables what is clearly influenced by script languages such as Perl which have their roots in the USA. As PHP's core components, such as ZEND, are developed in Europe and many opinion leaders are from here I'd suggest to replace $ by the Euro sign € as of PHP5. Yes, this will break some of the existing scripts, but we might provide a tool which replaces all occurencies of $ by €. -- Daniel Lorch http://daniel.lorch.cc/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15343&edit=1
