Hi Greg & QAddicts,
You will say I play the fool again, but someone should do it.
I really want to help testing this 1.3.4 in this new 2005.
Fool as I am, I could succeed to cvs -co, got your tgz the same.
What should I do next ? Install how ? Some docs ?
Should I roughly rename '/usr/share/pear' to '/usr/share/no_pear'
and run some install ?
(just to keep that lovely pear as it is)
Bloody testers are also needed, so excuse my poor understanding.

As I get little concern in getopt,
why are you still requiring the pear package
and not use the kernel getopt() from PHP above 4.3 when it's there ?

En tout cas,
Bonne année !

That would work fine.

I don't maintain Console_Getopt, and since there are no problems with
the current implementation, I consider it a waste of (my) time to divert
energies from stuff that is known to not work. Perhaps you can convince
Andrei to implement this.
