note 75103 added to function.exec

In response to Bob-PHP at HamsterRepublic dot com (18-Oct-2005 11:00): Since exec() removes trailing whitespace, Bob suggested to use popen() instead. However, if you do not need the additional features of exec(), it is much simpler to just use shell_exec(), which does preserve trailing whitespace. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 84.181.73.129 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.exec.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/75103 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75103/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75103/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75103/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75103/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75103/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75103/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75103 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/75103 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
