@Edent@mastodon.social Documentation indicates flush ought to do it:
"Flushes the system write buffers of PHP and the backend used by PHP (e.g.: CGI, a web server). In a command line environment flush() will attempt to flush the contents of the buffers only whereas in a web context headers and the contents of the buffers are flushed."
— https://www.php.net/flush

I had this little Black-capped Chickadee eating out of my hand earlier on a lovely 8k walk with @dseguy@phpc.social and @DaveLiddament@phpc.social in the snow at the back end of @ConFooCa@techhub.social .
Thanks Canada!

I just made and ate, a bowl full of bacon fried Brussels Sprouts. Not under duress, and out of my own free will.

@markmccaughrean@mastodon.social This reminds of this time when I wrote a section for my book where I explained what anti-aliasing is. The publisher helpfully smoothed out both the before and after lines 🤦♂️ :
