<para>
|
|
<function>compact</function> takes a variable number of
|
|
parameters. Each parameter can be either a string containing the
|
|
name of the variable, or an array of variable names. The array
|
|
can contain other arrays of variable names inside it;
|
|
<function>compact</function> handles it recursively.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
For each of these, <function>compact</function> looks for a
|
|
variable with that name in the current symbol table and adds it
|
|
to the output array such that the variable name becomes the key
|
|
and the contents of the variable become the value for that key.
|
|
In short, it does the opposite of <function>extract</function>.
|
|
It returns the output array with all the variables added to it.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Any strings that are not set will simply be skipped.
