Re: CGI and CLI

So every tutorial and documentation on this would have to say this right? "Ask your sysadmin what the CGI and CLI versions of your PHP are called, they could be anything as there is no standard. For the purpose of this (tutorial|documentation), we'll call CLI php-cli and CGI php-cgi." Same goes for all cgi scripts, they'll work some places but not others... And various RPM's would have different naming schemes depending on the maintainers preference.
