title: Convert a PHP script into a stand-alone windows executable
body: <p>I want to automate a fairly simple task. For this I have written a small PHP script which I run from the command line using PHP-CLI. Now I want to hand over this script to someone but I do not want to:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>give away the source code</li>
  <li>ask him to install PHP on the system</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Is there a way to create a .exe version of the PHP script. I am really not much worried about de-compilation; I am more worried about asking people to install and configure PHP.</p>
