Drunken PHP for Sublime Text

Description

PHP is often criticized for having an inconsistent syntax and this is exactly what Drunken PHP aims at. It's a set of alternative command completions, including aliases for ill-formed syntax. Read the Aliases section below for examples.

Note: More recent versions of Sublime Text 3 received a much improved fuzzy completion. Nevertheless, I still believe that this package makes for a good companion to your standard PHP completions. However, I'm undecided about the future of this project, it's clearly far from being complete. Should you be interested in helping out, feel free to submit a pull request.

Usage

As with all completions, type and press Tab to complete the command. Press Tab again to jump to the next parameter, Shift+Tab to jump back. Note there are two jumps available when the parameter defaults to a variable.

Aliases

You can tell apart Drunken PHP from proper syntax from the %-prefix displayed in the command completion window. Aliases have been broken up into the following categories:

Prince Versions

Named after the Prince Emulator in Douglas Coupland's Microserfs, you can substitute any to with the number 2 and vice versa.

Examples:

PHP	Alias
bin2hex	bintohex
cal_to_jd	cal2jd

Spacing

Enables you to type commands with or without spacing. Probably obsolete due to fuzzy completions.

Examples:

PHP	Alias
get_html_translation_table	gethtmltranslationtable
getimagesizefromstring	get_image_size_from_string

Spelling

Corrects common spelling mistakes.

Examples:

PHP	Alias
mb_strwidth	mb_strwidht
ob_get_length	ob_get_lenght
phpversion	phpverison

Synonyms

Makes some native syntax more descriptive

Examples:

PHP	Alias
asin	arc_sin (or arcsin)
asort	array_sort
bzcompress	bzip_compress

Word Order

The order of noun and verb is reversible

Examples:

PHP	Alias
ini_get	get_ini
get_class	class_get
