Package: php5-cli
Version: 5.5.7+dfsg-2
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/share/man/man1/php5.1.gz

We read
       --interactive
       -a             Run  PHP  interactively. This lets you enter snippets of
                      PHP code that directly get executed. When readline  sup-
                      port  is  enabled  you  can edit the lines and also have
                      history support.

However there is much more to the story. The Debian man page should mention more of it:
