Description: ------------ Would be nice if pear had a "install-strip" command, which would install files with role "php" piped through "php -w". Sounds sane?

This is best implemented with <?php foreach (System::find(array('/path/to/pear', '-name', '*.php')) as $file) { `php -w $file > $file`; } ?> Not with an added command for the installer. Most users prefer comments to figure out how the code works if there is a bug, and if you use any kind of bytecode cache, they do not affect speed at all. Greg
