phpfunc
phpfunc is a command line perl script that returns documentation on a
builtin php function, works like perldoc -f
function.
Requirements:
perl
LWP perl module
connection to a web local server with php documentation or connection
to the internet.

the GNU license.
How phpfunc works:
phpfunc takes a php function name and returns the definition,
synopsis any relevant functions.
example:
$ phpfunc strstr
FUNCTION:
strstr --
Find first occurrence of a string.
SYNOPSIS:
string
strstr(string haystack, string needle);
SEE ALSO:
stristr(),
strrchr(), substr(), and ereg()
$
phpfunc currently requires a connection to a web server that is serving
the plain html version of php online documentation.
This may be placed on a local web server to improve performance.
phpfunc goes to the online manual to reference the function
given. In future releases phpfunc may come with its own local copies of
the documentation but currently only supports the online version.
Configuring phpfunc:
At the top of the perl script is a section called CONFIG. Below that
there are 5 variables.
my $url - point this to the PLAIN HTML version of php's documentation.
A copy placed on a local web server will descrease the time it takes to
return the results. The default will use the copy sitting on php's server
my $timeout- this is the time in seconds to keep trying to fetch the
results. Since pages from the documentation are being pulled from a web
server, connections my be slow or down.
The other three variables deal with proxy information. Skip if not
needed
my $use_proxy - 0 (zero) = no. 1 = yes
my $proxy_server - the address of your proxy server.
my $proxy_port - the port of your proxy server.
