returning array from commandline

Hi,

I am busy developing a commandline tool that will, in certain
cirumstances, return an array of information when called and im having
a problem with this.

The last part of my code looks like this:

if(is_array($rslt)) return $rslt;
else echo $rslt;

I.e. if its an array dont echo it, return it rather and im have huge
problems even using that $rslt variable. I have tried various exec
queries including exec() (with var before function call and as a
parameter), passthru, backtick operators and none of them allow me to
use the array after the commandline tool has been run.

I also dont know how many levels the array may have as im referencing
other functions that change them based on the query given to the
commandline tool so I cant even put it into a string before returning
it as i dont know how many levels are involved and are returned from
the function call inside the commandline app. Does anyone have any
suggestions as to how I could achieve this or any better ways of doing
it?

Quick summary: Im accessing a web interface that calls a php file to
parse some info. That php file may get an array back that I need to
use in the web interface - but I cant pass it back to the web
interface from the commandline tool.

Thanks
Ian
