Command Line Encoder for Unix, Linux and Mac OS operating systems

Graphical and Command Line Encoder for Windows
Encode in PHP IDE

Encoding PHP Scripts with compiled bytecodes

Better execution performance than regular PHP files

Support for both PHP versions 4 and 5

Tight integration with all NuSphere products, such as PhpED and PhpDock

And more ...
NuSphere provides two different interfaces with Nu-Coder:

Command Line Interface to a standalone Nu-Coder

Graphical User Interface to Nu-Coder from PhpED (available in PhpED 5.0), NuSphere
PHP IDE
Both interfaces allow the user to pass various parameters to the encoder to control the way PHP Sources are compiled into bytecodes and the creation of output files.

Encode and protect PHP files in the entire given directory and its sub-directories

Encode single PHP file and save results into output file.

Tell Nu-Coder to create output file's name by appending given extension at the end of the source file name

Overwrite the source file with encoded content

Perform Syntax check only and not produce any encoded content

In directory processing mode, encode only files with certain extensions (defaults are php and inc)

Copy all non-php files into target directory

Ignore errors and continue encoding

Turn off support for short php tags <? ?>

Turn on support for asp style php tags <%>

Keep extended information for php debugger and php profiler

Preserve line numbers information

Do not strip php-doc comments, useful for reflection

When PHP interpreter executes any PHP script it first compiles the script into bytecodes. However Nu-Coder produces PHP files that have been already compiled into bytecodes.

PhpExpress loads encoded PHP scripts directly into PHP engine saving time and boosting performance of PHP interpretor

PhpExpress also implements caching for PHP engine and accelerates execution process even if PHP Script is not encoded
