NiceError
=========

[](#niceerror)

Nicer errors for PHP. Just include `"minond/nice_error": "dev-master"` in your composer file, set the NICE\_ERRORS environment variable to "1", and that's it:

```
{
	"require-dev": {
		"minond/nice_error": "dev-master"
	}
}
```

```
NICE_ERRORS=1 php your_php_script.php

```
