执行运算符
PHP 支持一个执行运算符:反引号(``)。注意这不是单引号!PHP 将尝试将反引号中的内容作为 shell 命令来执行,并将其输出信息返回(即,可以赋给一个变量而不是简单地丢弃到标准输出)。使用反引号运算符“`”的效果与函数 shell_exec() 相同。
<?php
$output = `ls -al`;
echo "<pre>$output</pre>";
?>
注意:
关闭了 shell_exec() 时反引号运算符是无效的。
注意:
与其它某些语言不同,反引号不能在双引号字符串中使用。

Just a general usage note. I had a very difficult time solving a problem with my script, when I accidentally put one of these backticks at the beginning of a line, like so:
[lots of code]
` $URL = "blah...";
[more code]
Since the backtick is right above the tab key, I probably just fat-fingered it while indenting the code.
What made this so hard to find, was that PHP reported a parse error about 50 or so lines *below* the line containing the backtick. (There were no other backticks anywhere in my code.) And the error message was rather cryptic:
Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or `T_NUM_STRING' in /blah.php on line 446
Just something to file away in case you're pulling your hair out trying to find an error that "isn't there."

You can use variables within a pair of backticks (``).
<?php
$host = 'www.wuxiancheng.cn';
echo `ping -n 3 {$host}`;
?>
