There are all kinds of small differences in the several unix flavors. At
work I have Prime unix boxes and also HP9000 HP-UX boxes. Both Unix, but
can't swap scripts.
I would store personal scripts in something like $home/bin and add that
directory to my path. For system-wide scripts I have added a /scripts
directory to the system path.
