Keith, Thank you for the '--with-readline' suggestion, I've just finished testing this and it works great! I'm working on moving this over to production now.

In theory, theory and practice are the same; in practice they are not.

What about if you just copied the php cli to /usr/local/bin, or /usr/bin? That way it would be in the PATH and that path will not change between upgrades? My /user/local is on a seperate partition, so anything installed there should survive an OS upgrade. I also see from your ./configure script that you do not use the '--with-readline' option. On Fedora 8 I have to use this option to allow me to use php interactively like a BASIC interpreter. This is really handy for debugging PHP one line interactively at a time. I thought this was enabled by default, but apparently it's not. Try typing php -a at a shell command. You should then see something like this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] php-5.2.x]# php -a Interactive shell php > echo "Hello World"; Hello World php > php > $keywords = '$40 for a g3/400'; php > $keywords = preg_quote($keywords, '/'); php > echo $keywords; // returns \$40 for a g3\/400 \$40 for a g3\/400 php > php > quit [EMAIL PROTECTED] php-5.2.x]# Really handy for checking out those one-liners that your not sure about. If php just seems to hang and output a command prompt, then you probably need to use the '--with-readline' option.
