Is there a way to determine the path to the php executable (as opposed
to the script. In other words, I am looking for the path to php.exe or
php-win.exe) that is currently running (ie. how was this script called)
on Windows (I'm on Win XP Pro)? WScript/CScript (when programming in
VBScript) allow this, for example.

Failing that, is there any way to conclusively determine whether the
script that is running was invoked from php.exe or php-win.exe? I say
conclusively, because often there is a slight difference in the
environment variables, but it need not be the case.

Thanks,
