A silly hack (which could prove to have some usefulness) to create a "progress indikator"
using Andreas Schmeiler's hex2bin:
Run this in command line:
#!/usr/bin/php4 -q
<?
$progress[]="|";
$progress[]="/";
$progress[]="-";
$progress[]="\\";
function hex2bin($hexdata)
{
for ($i=0;$i<strlen($hexdata);$i+=2)
{
$bindata.=chr(hexdec(substr($hexdata,$i,2)));
}
return $bindata;
}
for($i=0;$i<50000; $i++)
{
foreach($progress as $key)
{
sleep(1);
echo $key.hex2bin("08");
}
}
?>
NB: The sleep function is only for demonstration purpose :)
Also the 08 migth be OS dependent, this code has been tested on linux only.
