Intro For a while now I am interested in electronics.

Why For a while now, I have been working on a personal project called newsletter2web, which I run on a Raspberry PI.

As promised in part 1, the introduction of this series on PHP fork, now we will talk about the way processes work in UNIX and Linux, and how we can use these from PHP.

In the past weeks, I have been writing a daemon in PHP for my work at Alphacomm.
