boolean

Type: boolean

Everything else is evaluated to one of these values by PHP: Non-empty strings (except 0 [zero]) are treated as TRUE, empty strings are evaluated to FALSE.

Examples:

dummy.enable = 0    # false, preferred notation
dummy.enable = 1    # true,  preferred notation
dummy.enable =      # false, because the value is empty

boolean2

Type: boolean
Possible: 1 | 0

1 means TRUE and 0 means FALSE.

Everything else is evaluated to one of these values by PHP: Non-empty strings (except 0 [zero]) are treated as TRUE, empty strings are evaluated to FALSE.

Examples:

dummy.enable = 1    # true,  preferred notation
dummy.enable =      #

case

`capitalize`	Uppercase the first character of each word in the string
`ucfirst`	Convert the first letter of the string to upper case
`lcfirst`	Convert the first letter of the string to lower case
`uppercamelcase`	Convert underscored `upper_camel_case` to `UpperCamelCase`
