Description:
------------
The reference for printer functions say it is available after 4.0.4, but in every function is "no version information, might be only in CVS", I think the reference is right, so this need to be fixed. I know this is not on xml files, but generated from a script or something like this.

printer functions are going to be moved into PECL

Erm, since PECL extensions are currently documented in the PHP manual, this should be fixed somehow...

Updating bug as all PECL extensions lack version information within the PHP Manual. Status->Critical.

Vrana, could you add a link to the patch within this bug report?

Here's the patch: http://www.vrana.cz/scite/functable_pecl.diff.txt

i've applied the path and i'm rebuilding the version information right now ...

but the real problem here is that ext/printer was completely removed 
(physicly) from the php-src CVS repository instead of just doing a
"cvs delete", that is the real reason for the version information being lost :(

so even with the functable patch applied it will just say that these
functions are available in PECL but the information that it was available in some 4.x versions is lost 

well, actually the version information is still in the CVS files that 
were moved to the PECL repository so it might be possible to
extract them from there ... but unless there are other extensions
that have been moved this way, too, i'll refuse to add extra code 
to do this ...

So this is fixed in CVS. printer extension will show only as in PECL (without PHP 4), it's not a big deal IMHO.
