     This example demonstrates how to check out a directory from
     a repository to a directory named calc:
    </para>
    <programlisting role="php">
<![CDATA[
<?php
svn_checkout('http://www.example.com/svnroot/calc/trunk', dirname(__FILE__) . '/calc');
?>
]]>
    </programlisting>
    <para>
     The <literal>dirname(__FILE__)</literal> call is necessary in order
     to convert the calc relative path into an absolute one. If calc
     exists, you can also use <function>realpath</function> to retrieve
     an absolute path.
    </para>
   </example>
