note 20727 added to ref.readline

I wanted to get console input in a PHP script running on windows, so I made a little hack, which is so simple, it is clearly public domain. What I did was write a C++ program to get a line, then output it. Then all that is needed is to exec() that program and capture the output - readline() for windows. The C++ source is as follows: #include <iostream.h> #include <string> void main() { string input; cin >> input; cout << input; } It works wonderfully for my purposes, since I love the PHP language and want to have console input.
