use PHP version of mamp

gistfile1.txt

alias phpmamp='/Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin/php'

or

I have created a symlink at the original php location.

1. Locate your osx php version with:

which php
The result should be:

/opt/local/bin/php
2. Backup (move) your original php binary:

sudo mv /opt/local/bin/php /opt/local/bin/php.bak
3. Create the symlink:

sudo ln -s /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.4.4/bin/php /opt/local/bin/php
4. Run your new php version:

php -v
Now you can use the php command with the newest version.
