Using php on the command line, the variables $argv and $argc are not set even when arguments are present. I used the newest win32 zip package from php.net. But it worked on a linux system ...

this is the script 'test.php'
-----
<?php
  print_r($argv);
?>
-----

when called via
c:\>php -f test.php test bla testagain

it should print:
------
Array
(
    [0] => test.php
    [1] => test
    [2] => bla
    [3] => testagain
)
-----

but nothing happens.

i used php 4.2.3 win32 binaries (zip) on a WinNT SP6 PC.
all other things seem to work.

In PHP 4.2.0, the 'register_globals' setting default changed to
'off'. See http://www.php.net/release_4_2_0.php for more info.
We are sorry about the inconvenience, but this change was a necessary
part of our efforts to make PHP scripting more secure and portable.

See also $_SERVER['argv'] and friends.
