Is /bin/sh the default interpreter?)
I also thought this (Colin's comment), was the problem so I changed
some of my bash scripts to test it. At least on my slink box, that
isn't the answer.
Hey,
I can't get any of my scripts to work. I'm just trying to start simple, by
making a script to delete all my FreeCiv save files. I use 'vi' and type
the following:
# !/bin/sh
rm civgame*
clear
pwd
ls -l
Then I type chmod u+x

removeCiv.sh: command not found
Try
/removeCiv.sh
or move the script to an 'executables' directory, such as /usr/local/bin.
By
by default, the current working directory (CWD) is not in your $PATH
so append a ./ to the command, so in this case ./removeCiv.sh
or you can modify your path, in /etc/profile (for bash and compadible
shells) add
export PATH=$PATH:.
although it is somewhat of a security risk to have . in your
7 matches
