It might be a good idea to check the list archives.

But since I am feeling nice today (assuming you want to do it on *nix). Then
download and un-pack the source and run:
# ./configure [... additional options here like MySQL etc...(make sure you don't
put in the webserver)]
# make
# make install
Then it will create a php executable in the /usr/local/bin/ dir. Run that like
this:
# php -f filename.php
There is also another way to do it with magic lines I think something like this
at the top of your _executable_ file
#!/usr/local/bin/php
... Then just run your executable file like you would any other.

Subject: [PHP] php from the command line
Hi!
I was wondering how you could run php from the command line, and how it works!
Just out of curiosity =)
Thanks
