From StackOverflow

Short function

function is_a_tty() 
{
    static $result;
    if (is_null(result)) {
        $fp = fopen('php://stdin', 'r');
        $stat = fstat($fp);
        $mode = $stat['mode'] & 0170000; // S_IFMT
        $result = $mode == 0020000; // S_IFCHR
        fclose($fp);

Input

$ php io.php
// Character device as input
// $io->stdin->isChr  == true

$ echo | php io.php
// Input piped from another command
// $io->stdin->isFifo == true

$ php io.php < infile
// Input from a regular file (name taken verbatim from C headers)
// $io->stdin->isReg  == true

$ mkdir test
$ php io.php < test
// Directory used as input
// $io->stdin->isDir  == true
Output:

$ php io.php
// $io->stdout->isChr  == true

$ php io.php | cat
// $io->stdout->isFifo == true

$ php io.php > outfile
// $io->stdout->isReg  == true
Error:

$ php io.php
// $io->stderr->isChr  == true

$ php io.php 2>&1 | cat
// stderr redirected to stdout AND piped to another command
// $io->stderr->isFifo == true

$ php io.php 2>error
// $io->stderr->isReg  == true

I hope those PHP stuff finally dies 🙁
