PHP syntax check on Save

John Gruber has produced a nice little AppleScript to check your PHP documents for syntax errors. I have found that you can use this as a nice safety net so not to save any PHP documents with errors by attaching the script to the Save option in the File menu:

1. Install the AppleScript into ~/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Scripts/
2. Make an Alias to this script and name it File•Save You can get the round character between File and Save by holding the option key and pressing 8.
3. Move this Alias to ~/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Menu Scripts/
4. Restart BBEdit

Now, whenever you try and save a PHP script, it will perform a syntax check. If there are any problems, then it will tell you what line number the problem has occurred on, which you can then fix. Useful, yes?
