Hi,

A little note about executing a phar file, no phar extension is required to execute a phar archive, neither to create it (see Right, but php and PEAR are required to read/create/inspect the archive.Who has inspected pear.phar? Not a lot I think, but we all installed pear using at least once (without ext/phar). Not pear directly but PHP_Archive or the pecl/phar. However phar is good to test something in a non intrusive way (no file to install, you can do "php foo.phar" or run it in a webserver if you rename it to .php) or as a self contained installer. But I would not recommend to ever use a phar for other purposes like in a production environment. --Pierre
