<?php
/* 25 October 2011. version 1.1-FF4
 *
 * This is the php version of the Dean Edwards JavaScript's Packer,
 * Based on :
 *
 * ParseMaster, version 1.0.2 (2005-08-19) Copyright 2005, Dean Edwards
 * a multi-pattern parser.
 * KNOWN BUG: erroneous behavior when using escapeChar with a replacement
 * value that is a function
 *
 * packer, version 2.0.2 (2005-08-19) Copyright 2004-2005, Dean Edwards
 *
 * License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/LGPL/2.1/
 *
 * Ported to PHP by Nicolas Martin.
 *
 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------
 * changelog:
 * 1.1 : correct a bug, '\0' packed then unpacked becomes '\'.
 * 1.1-FF4 : Firefox 4 fix, Copyright 2011, Mieczyslaw Nalewaj
 * ----------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 * examples of usage :
 * $myPacker = new JavaScriptPacker($script, 62, true, false);
 * $packed = $myPacker->pack();
 *
 * or
 *
 * $myPacker = new JavaScriptPacker($script, 'Normal', true, false);
 * $packed = $myPacker->pack();
 *
 * or (default values)
 *
 * $myPacker = new JavaScriptPacker($script);
 * $packed = $myPacker->pack();
 *
 *
 * params of the constructor :
 * $script:       the JavaScript to pack, string.
 * $encoding:     level of encoding, int or string :
 *                0,10,62,95 or 'None', 'Numeric', 'Normal', 'High ASCII'.
 *                default: 62.
 * $fastDecode:   include the fast decoder in the packed result, boolean.
 *                default : true.
 * $specialChars: if you are flagged your private and local variables
 *                in the script, boolean.
 *                default: false.
 *
 * The pack() method return the compressed JavasScript, as a string.
 *
 * see http://dean.edwards.name/packer/usage/ for more information.
 *
 * Notes :
 * # need PHP 5 . Tested with PHP 5.1.2, 5.1.3, 5.1.4, 5.2.3
 *
 * # The packed result may be different than with the Dean Edwards
 *   version, but with the same length. The reason is that the PHP
 *   function usort to sort array don't necessarily preserve the
 *   original order of two equal member. The Javascript sort function
 *   in fact preserve this order (but that's not require by the
 *   ECMAScript standard). So the encoded keywords order can be
 *   different in the two results.
 *
 * # Be careful with the 'High ASCII' Level encoding if you use
 *   UTF-8 in your files...
