Thanks :-) I've not had any feedback on that yet; I would appreciate it if people could drop me a note if/when they try it, just so I know how well it works or if there are problems. > in case you are looking for this functionality: > http://news.php.net/article.php?group=php.dev&article=82031 Also see http://php.net/proc_open for the "official" docs. Unfortunately, I don't think this is what Dan needs. What he needs is a PHP user-space equivalent to pipe(), or to just have his parent process start a daemon on a unix-domain socket and have the children connect to it. The latter is probably the easiest, provided that you watch out for gotchas with permissions on the socket in the filesystem. --Wez. -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
