#21428 [NEW]: additional example for CLI SAPI page

From: andrey@php.net Operating system: all PHP version: 4.3.0 PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: additional example for CLI SAPI page Hi, few minutes ago I was asked by a friend : "How can I read the user input in CLI?" He proposed this : <?php print "enter:\n"; $r = fread(STDIN, 100); print $r; ?> but....the user has to enter EOF (Ctrl-Z on Windows, Ctrl-D on *nix). This is not intuitive. So after some thinking I created this : <?php print "enter:\n"; fscanf($STDIN, "%d\n",$r); //reading a number print $r; ?> I haven't found an example about that issue on the CLI SAPI page.
