you probably want to say

        ~ fish bin/cccc

since otherwise the OS will try to run the file as executable code. You could 
try to add a shebang line to the top of your file:

        #!/path/to/fish

which should prompt exec to call the interpreter for you. I assume, but have 
not checked, that this works for Mac OS X as it does for Linux.

Cheers
Jan
