quite less infos you give.
echo $P[2] would output test or what?
$U["test"] or $U[1] = test ??
a hint. Uhm, use regexpressions to split the string and form variables
out of it.
my guess.

OR, you could try :
1st split the text by newline into array.
Then split every element of the resulting array by '=' and
then you have all you need to create the variables, i guess :)
simple example :
$text_arr = explode("\n",$text);
foreach($text AS $val){
$temp_arr=explode("=",$val);
$$temp_arr[0][] = $temp_arr[1]; // not sure if this line is correct...
}
