Detailed Description

This script lets a command-line user start up the wiki engine and then poke about by issuing PHP commands directly.

Unlike eg Python, you need to use a 'return' statement explicitly for the interactive shell to print out the value of the expression. Multiple lines are evaluated separately, so blocks need to be input without a line break. Fatal errors such as use of undeclared functions can kill the shell.

To get decent line editing behavior, you should compile PHP with support for GNU readline (pass –with-readline to configure).
