Run php on command line
So I have 1 machine that can execute php files on the command line just fine.
I'm trying to set it up on another machine so I installed phpED. But when I'm at a command prompt it doesn't know what to do when I type php. I'm pretty sure I need to tell it through an Environment variable where php.exe is, but I looked at the machine that IS working and there is no Environment variable set for php.
So, I'm confused.

It could be setup in Folder Options for the PHP file-type. I don't know what phpED is.

I understand you do not use phpED on the PC which opens .php files from a command prompt just fine.
Why don't you open .php files on the PC that has phpED the same way?

I totally missed it. I didn't realize there are a whole bunch of programs on PATH and I didn't know that. Sure enough, when I copied the value over to Notepad, there it was.
