I checked the bug database and did not see this anywhere...  what is the feasability of creating a fork() implementation in PHP? Obviously this would be useless as an Apache module, but for those of use who use PHP for shell script and administration scripts, this would be a boon.

Did you have a look at the pcntl extension, that
has been commited to PHP about 4 months ago?

If also implements a function pcntl_fork(), that
should do exactly what you want.

Actually, I'm writing the docs for the pcntl extension.  I'll close this request.
