syntax

On the Liip blog there's a new post that compares some of the popular PHPDocumentor-formatted comments parsers.

They're looking specifically at the support for interfaces, not just the usual classes and methods.

On the ServerGrove blog today there's a new post showing how you can set up Dreamweaver to be able to edit Twig templates directly, complete with syntax highlighting.

TuxRadar: "Nano supports syntax highlighting. Nano supports text justification. And yet, Nano is so much easier than Emacs or Vim.

Discover the hidden power of this versatile command line text editor"

If you use Zend Framework you probably used the initRoutes() function in your Initializer.php to create nice URI's and creating some different routing in your application.

To create a customized route for your application you can use the Zend_Controller_Router_Route class from the Zend Framework.

If you use the common syntax you have to repeatedly build routes in code for all routes in your application.

This makes it not maintainable for programmers. To fix this problem we are going to use a XML file with all routing information.

A nice blog post about "little mini-languages" that form part of the syntax of Clojure.

Every Joe: "GNote is interesting is an interesting application because it is a sticky notes application which allows wiki-like syntax, linking, and so on.

In addition to the fairly common forms of input/output redirection the shell recognizes something called process substitution.

Although not documented as a form of input/output redirection, its syntax and its effects are similar.
