We can call it bhb for all practical purposes (not that I'm > suggesting that). People will get used to whatever it's named. If it were me (which, of course, it isn't, but...), I'd leave the cgi as php and call the command-line version phpc. (Well, actually, if it were *just* me, I'd leave them both as php -- even on Windows -- and just make sure I had them in appropriate directories, but I'm extremely aware that real-world users are often not up to that kind of subtlety.) What I absolutely would *not* do is rename the cgi version to php-cgi whilst *simultaneously* introducing a new php with a different purpose. If I were going to do this, I'd want to do it in steps: 1 - cgi to php-cgi + introduce php-cli (so any installations still looking for php get a straight file not found); 2 - php-cli to php. As I'm pretty sure this isn't going to fly, let's go back to my first para...!! Cheers!
