We are dealing with *idiots* here. Their CODE doesnt work, they are *learning* PHP, they want help on their *non-functional* code, easily, simply and quickly. We can already say "put this in a .php file then give us the URL to it" and cut n paste them a short script which will show_source their script. However this is TOO MUCH for most newbies and people I encounter daily in #php on dal.net - now if I asked them for a URL to their script, they give me http://whatever.com/script.php so I can see the error in action - I tell them "ok, rename it to phps". Voila - I get the source. THIS is where phps is SO useful.

I'm not insisting we should remove phps, but discourage use of it :) Hmm. Additional feature is useful for supporting people on irc probably. Ok you win. Let's discourage usage of phps in the manual while adding new feature. -- Yasuo Ohgaki
