forking output

Is there an argument which I can pass to php.exe which forks the script output to another process and gives me back the terminal? Something like: php.exe -q <fork arg> script.php I know you can do this using the php_win.exe binary Frank whipped up, but I'm actually trying to achieve something a little different...... an overlay manager for PHP, written in PHP:) Any help would be great here.
