Hello Yasuo!

Thank you for your detailed response on this topic. I will look more =
into the source code of the CLI server and see what I can do. Sadly I am =
not a big C guy, but maybe the code will lead me into the right =
direction :)

Yes, I have a watch dog over each process that I spawn (a seperate thrad =
which is dedicated to the process). So if the server decides to shut =
down, I can bring it back up immediately. Thank you again for the hint.

I agree, the note should be changed some, it's a little bit misleading =
in my opinion. But I can see it's purpose, as most people will just use =
apache to serve PHP files.

Kind regards, Ingwie.
