Not quite.  I used *both* Paul's version and Lenny's version of phdaemon
to fix some of the problems with it.  Both versions had bugs (this one
probably still does too, but I don't know what they are), and I took the
best parts of each to create phdaemon version #3.  That's the reason I
changed the header info on the program source, Lenny.  If you examine the
code carefully, you'll see that it's interwoven with pieces of both the
prior versions...
