Hi all
This one's got me stumped. I'm working on a PHP CLI interface, and I
need to allow the user to input a bit of HTML.
Rather than bandy around with readline() and the like, I thought it
would be nice to just create a temporary file, pop nano up, and read and
then delete the file once it's been edited. That way I get nano's syntax
highlighting and other useful features.
However, I can't for the life of me figure out how to allow the user to
interact with nano once the process has been launched. The usual culprits:
{exec,system,shell_exec}( "nano tmpfile.txt" );
all just hang (top shows nano is running, but it doesn't seem to be
attached to the terminal).
How can I launch a process and attach it to the terminal PHP CLI was
launched from so that the user can interact with it?
TIA
