An old PHP port of the Perl Cowsay program

cowsays-php

An old PHP port of the Perl Cowsay program. It was made in my early dev years and it should stay there as is. I won't merge any pull requests, but you are welcome to fork and play.

I don't remember of the PHP version, all I know now, is that Function ereg() is deprecated in inc.cowsay.php on line 179

Have fun

License :

The license is obviously the same as the Cowsays program.

Usage

Include inc.cowsays.php in any PHP file

Call with cowsay($string, $cowsDir, $thoughts_style='default', $eyes_style='default', $cowFile='default.php' )

Where :

• $string= The text you want to display
• $cowsDir = the cows dir :)
• $thoughts_style= 'default' or 'think'; it's the way the cow expresses itself
• $eyes_style= the eyes of the cow, may be : 'default', 'borg', 'dead', 'greedy', 'paranoid', 'stoned', 'tired', 'wired' or 'young'
• cowFile= the cow itself. May be any PHP file in the cows dir.

The test.php file contain a form to play with the different options.

Samples :

Simple Cowsay : no options except text
