How do you reference command line arguments in php?
i.e., chkmd5.php file.md5
I am wanting to reference file.md5. Since the output of md5sum is not in the RFC I am having to manually parse each md5 and detect whether it is in Win32, Linux, or BSD format.
I'm not sure what you meant by that (since an md5 checksum is an md5 checksum) but...
What I mean is that a Win32 md5sum outputs like hash *file
Linux: file:hash -or hash:file
and BSD: (file) hash
So if I run md5sum -c file.md5 and it was created on another platform, md5sum will not check md5. The hash will be the same but not the file output format. That is all.
And since php has good built in md5() support it helps out.
I think you're looking for "argv":

PS Btw, it's "php-geNeral" and not "php-geMeral" ;)
It is much easier to just ask you guys though.
