I guess you’re talking about that nightrain<br/> <a href="https://github.com/kjellberg/nightrain" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/kjellberg/nightrain</a><br/> I will try although it is a bit old - no update for 12 years... Could be quite difficult to integrate into "devphp"... without guarantee.<br/> In case... could you be so kind as to submit a feature request?</p> <p>Best regards</p></div>Pierre FauconnierFri, 13 Mar 2026 08:56:55 -0000https://sourceforge.nete2522f5d318f4b5308b03aa1568f8033b5af31e1https://sourceforge.net/p/devphp/discussion/426561/thread/1fef47abec/?limit=25#7447<div class="markdown_content"><p>Ok. First - I think I might be able to do this without asking for a change but I thought I'd ask anyway. :-)</p> <p>Has there been any thought to making this development program run any code against NightTrain. The standalone compiler which will compile a PHP script so it can run on any OS. NightTrain is one of those programs that puts a browser, which runs HTML, CSS, Javascript, and PHP, together so you get a working program. Since Dev-PHP is a great editor - I thought - why not make it make standalone programs too. :-)</p> <p>Also - I'm just now downloading Dev-PHP because of all of the reviews. I'm a VIM type person but like to try new tools. :-)</p> <p>Anyway - just a thought. :-)</p></div>Mark ManningWed, 11 Mar 2026 19:31:53 -0000https://sourceforge.net0a7810dbbf11ade0ed352597d3edf611f7a15e6e
