Invoking multiple tasks does not work about phake HOT 2 CLOSED

Multiple task support is desirable; I use it frequently with rake/capistrano.

We could adopt the unix-y idiom of using a double-dash to separate user arguments from switches/flags. This would give us an officially sanctioned mechanism for passing positional arguments:

task('dump', function($app) {
  $dump = $app[0];
  echo file_get_contents($dump);
});

To invoke:

phake dump -- index.php

What do you think?

Multiple task support is desirable

Turns out I was wrong. Phake does support running multiple tasks. So the provided example does work as expected and returns ab.

The Phakefile that led me to file this issue actually invoked a pcntl_exec() which does not return. My bad.

We could adopt the unix-y idiom of using a double-dash to separate user arguments [...]. What do you think?

Using a double dash makes perfect sense and would be a nice feature. Though I still think passing positional arguments without special syntax would still be even better. Anyway, I'll file a new ticket to keep track of this discussion.
