php scriptname.php

and to output the data to a file php
scriptname.php > filetooutput.whateverextension

hope that helps, you may need to go to the php directory where the executable is to do this though.

Remember, that will only work if PHP is installed as a binary, it won't work if it is an Apache mod.

true but you can get the source and compile it on linux. and then run it.
