What changes have been made to the Enchant extension in PHP that may affect its functionality in newer versions like PHP 8.0.0?

In PHP 8.0.0, the Enchant extension has been removed from the core PHP distribution. To continue using Enchant functionality in PHP 8.0.0 and newer versions, you will need to install the Enchant extension separately using PECL. This change may affect scripts that rely on Enchant functions without having the extension installed. 

// Check if Enchant extension is installed
if (!extension_loaded('enchant')) {
    echo "Enchant extension is not installed. Please install it using PECL.";
    // Handle the absence of Enchant extension accordingly
} else {
    // Enchant extension is available, proceed with Enchant functionality
}
