From:             ddpm at liscovius dot de
Operating system: 
PHP version:      Irrelevant
Package:          Documentation problem
Bug Type:         Documentation Problem
Bug description:print documentation section Documentation is contradictory

Description:
------------
Synopsis on https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.print.php
shows:

print(string $expression): int

But the description text says: 

"print is not a function but a language construct. Its argument is the
expression following the print keyword, and is not delimited by
parentheses."

I see that the problem lies in the way the documentation is built. How
should the synopsis be for such **language construct**?

Expected result:
----------------
I do not know (yet).

Actual result:
--------------
print(string $expression): int
