      You can write shell scripts using the PHP interpreter. At the top of a
      file, write:

      #!/usr/bin/php

      Or whatever the path to PHP is. It may be /usr/local/bin/php, depending on
      which Unix you're using. Then you can just make the file executable and
      stick it in your crontab.

          PHP 4.3.0 supports now the new CLI SAPI for running php from command line.

          Is it wort of upgrading from 4.1.2 just because of it? I'm running
          Red Hat Linux 7.3 and it would mean that I'd had to package PHP myself
          which would be a lot of work (and otherwise I've still been content
          with the old version).

          Regards,
          Peter

              You can execute as a HTTP request too:

              lynx --dump http://localhost/page.php

              That way, it can even be done remotely. Don't forget the --dump,
              otherwise you will have a lynx process running each time that won't be
              killed.
