Concrete5 Console. Bash script (with embedded/self-referencing PHP script) to provide an interactive PHP console onto your Concrete5 installation. Place in Concrete5 directory, mark executable, and run.

c5console

#!/bin/bash
# Concrete5 Console<?php /*
cd `dirname $0`
php -dauto_prepend_file=`basename "$0"` -a
cd -
exit
*/
define('DIR_BASE','.'); 
define('C5_ENVIRONMENT_ONLY',true);
include('index.php');

This file is a polyglot. The first part of script (up to and including exit command) is Bash: switches to the directory of the script (which should be the Concrete5 installation directory) and then opens a PHP interactive session, first running itself. A PHP /*...*/ comment block limits as much as possible of the Bash code from being displayed as PHP output. The PHP code loads the Concrete5 environment.
