Re: php binary?

I am brand new to this list but I have used PHP a little Yes - you can use PHP 3 in stand alone mode Issues: 1) The usage claimed to be able to set variables on the command

      line. I was able to set one but not more than that - basically
      I just ended up creating a temporary wrapper script

2) I was actually doing this from inside Python, which was in turn

       being run as a CGI. To actually get the PHP to run command
       line I had to unset a subset of the HTML variables in the
       system call( which I can't recall off the top of my head )

PHP 4 has a stand alone interpreter. If you have installed the cgi bit of PHP 3, then you have an interpreter in your cgi-bin directory. I'm not entirely sure about PHP 3... I'm trying to remember what a friend told me once. Since you are wanting something stand alone, do not forget that you can use other languages, too.
