Hi, correct me if I am wrong but yesterday I read in a book related to Software Engineering (something called like "Classical and Object Oriented Software Engineering with examples in C++") that there was decision that programming languages will be spelled lowecase with the first character in upper case. Thus the valid name for FORTRAN is Fortran. So => Perl .. Php :) But this is more than a little bit off-topic. Andrey Robert Cummings wrote:

Why not just allow this as an optional feature, i don't see any reasons to keep this out as it doesn't affect any performace and can maybe help some old-skewl PERL-Coders to convert over to PHP.
     
For god's sake people: it's 'Perl', not PERL.
Doesn't PERL stand for Practical Extraction and Report Language, thus making it an acronym? Seems like it should be PERL and not Perl. But then this is getting waaaaaaaaay off topic. We should talk more about Php ;) Rob.
