In windows, put your php.exe file in windows/system32 or any other system executable folders and then go to command line and type php and hit enter following it, if it doesnt generate any error then you are ready to use PHP on command line. If you have set your php.exe somewhere else than default system folders then you need to set the path of it in the environment variables! You can get there in following path....

control panel -> System -> Edith the environment variables of your account -> Environment Vaiables -> path -> edit then set the absolute path of your php.exe there and follow the same procedure as in first paragraph, if nothing in the error department, then you are ready to use php from command line!
