I am getting started with using PHP as a local scripting language, unrelated to
web pages (because basically I don't know a thing about Perl and it's far more
convenient to use than shell scripts).

So I learned that you can read the standard input by opening php://stdin. Now I
want to process this input and write it to the output. However, anytime I start
PHP from the command line, these lines are written:

X-Powered-By: PHP/4.4.4
Content-type: text/html

Since eventually the scripts are supposed to process each other's output with
pipelines, I would like only my data to be printed. Is there some way to switch
off these http headers?
