Re: [PHP4BETA] New function chrcount (diff attached) From: Andi Gutmans (andi <email protected>)
Date: 04/24/00

I don't like the idea of having two such different functions having almost
the same name (I think the original count_chars() doesn't have the right
name but it's too late to change it now). It will be very confusing. I
would go either for char_count() or see if someone else can come up with a
better name which doesn't resemble any existing functions.
