[PHP] EOF: how to generate one in a string

[Jean-Christian Imbeault]

I am trying to use a command line program in Linux using this form:

$result = `/path/prog $arg`;

But this doesn't work as the program is expecting and EOF that never comes.

If I use the program on the command line when I am finished entering all the data I need to hit return and then CTRL-D to give an EOF.

How can I simulate this using the backticks?

Thanks!
