Solution

  • The only thing you need is a shell/terminal/command line (whatever your operating system of choice calls it) in which you type:

    php -q /path/to/your/script.php

    Where php is the path to the PHP executable followed by the option -q followed by the path to your script. This doesn't really depend on (X/W/M)AMP much.
