Are you implying I should write a Tokenizer Function to do the job? Nope, tokenizer function already exists. I'm suggesting it wouldn't be too hard to write a script that traverses your source tree, parses the scripts using PHP's tokenizer functions, traverses the tokens and tells you exactly what you want to know :) Just a matter of: 1. Recording declared functions/methods. 2. Tracking a counter for when the function is used. 3. After all is done, displaying functions/methods with 0 counter. This won't catch eval'd uses of functions, or other dynamic calling of functions. But it will probably give you a good idea where to look, possibly using grep. Dynamically called functions are non-deterministic and so the only way to catch their usage is via a profiler, and then again, it'll only get counted if it actually gets used during run-time.
