Just minor differences between command line and web based php execution.
Command line doesn't have any of the server variables available ($_SERVER,
$_GET, $_POST, etc.). Instead it has argc and argv. And you don't have a gui
available for command line. Strictly text based.

Otherwise it's no real differences.

However, I may be wrong, but I don't think you can get delivery reports for
messages from SMPP. You still need to depend on receipts (which may or may not
be sent by the user).
