Now I have a working and cleaned-up version of phpwriter.cpp and phpwriter.h. 
See the attached files. Together with the patch you gave it should be ready 
to find its way into CVS.

Is it possible to have a configuration dialog for a code generator? First idea 
was in PHP set set whether this shall be a standalone script (then the path 
to the PHP interpreter should be configurable) or whether this should be used 
inside of a Web Server which makes it necessary to start the whole php code 
using "<?php" and end it using "?>". Maybe there are some other settings for 
other languages as well which would be helpful, e.g. format style of output. 
What about an abstract configuration method in class CodeGenerator which can 
be implemented by a language generator?
