php.exe from CLI

[Lt. Manlove]

Having previously enjoyed calling 'php' on Linux systems from bash, I want to know if it is possible to called 'php'.exe in the command prompt on Windows? ie type p + h + TAB to autocomplete to php.

Got a feeling its going to be an environmental path or something, cant put my finger on it though!

Tired so ignore me if thats not what you are asking

Not far off, but I forgot to mention I don't want to have to go to the actual directory where php.exe is, I just want to type 'php' from anywhere. Like an alias in Linux.

Also press your Windows key + R to quickly get the run command up then just type php.exe when its done. Should work let me know if not.

Getting so close to a solution and thank you for your help so far. I want to call php from cmd.exe not the run dialog. I've added it to the registry and it didn't work
