It is non-trivial to implement on Windows. It is more of a feature request than a bug. UNIX supports non-blocking stdin natively, Windows doesn't. A Windows guy would need to write a compatibility layer to get this to work and we don't have very many Windows guys around. -Rasmus On Dec 8, 2011

hi, As a windows developer and user, and core developer of PHP as well as contributor to many OSS projects to help them to support windows better and keep the code portable, I'd to say that to base a project on .net is a wrong start to begin with. A very wrong one. And I really like .net, I only w

Don't take this the wrong way, I'm merely trying to provoke your thoughts a bit with this e-mail! :-) Has it occurred to anyone, to abandon the official PHP codebase and adopt Phalanger instead? Some convincing (to me) points: - Phalanger runs on Mono, meaning similar platform-reach as PHP. (but
