Nephtali is a flexible, fast, and secure PHP framework, which integrates security features such as automatic output escaping and input validation, while providing an an intuitive, consistent API within a uniquely transparent architecture using a functionally inspired code base. All of this, fitted into one PHP file.

Features of Nephtali:
- Functional style (functions are preferred over objects, many framework values are immutable.)
- Novel architecture makes use of pipe-controllers (as opposed to the page- or front-controllers) and embedded views, cleanly separating HTML from PHP and empowering designers in the development process.
- Wrapper functions for PDO simplify DB work whilst maintaining control and flexibility (working with multiple DB's and transactions is simple.)
- The framework all fits within ONE FILE, less than 3000 lines of code (including comments.)

Requirements:
- PHP 5.3 or Higher

What's New in This Version:
- Deprecated ‘is_valid’ flag in favor of ‘is_set’ flag for pure pipe signature checks.
- Corrected omission of ‘error_message’ spelling check for ports in debug mode.
- Fixed JSON-formatting bug for REST-ful port validation requests containing multiple errors.
- Port ‘error_message’ option now properly overrides the default error messages generated for specific failures.
- Started tradition of adding version number to the ncore root docblock to facilitate identification of the current version of Nephtali you’re using.
- Fixed bug leading to unnecessary calls of curl parallel processing function.
