Make this version available on the command line

Thank you, this is the problem. Sometimes I feel I need to have a native setup over the MAMP

It seemed like it wasn't running the right composer or php or something. After installing the zip.so I still had to run it by explicitly specifying paths for my php, ini and composer...

/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.4.9/bin/php -c "/Library/Application Support/appsolute/MAMP PRO/conf/php7.4.9.ini" /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/composer update

when I use pecl install zip I get No releases available for package "pecl.php.net/zip"

Which was solved with sudo pecl install zip
