All files here are executable save for this one. This means from anywhere in bash, entering the name of the file executes the file itself. Here's how to do this:
touch ~/bin/<script>(without extension)code ~/bin/<script>- On first line, add shebang #!/bin/bash – Execute the file using the Bash shell #!/usr/bin/pwsh – Execute the file using PowerShell #!/usr/bin/env python3 – Execute with a Python interpreter #!/bin/false – Do nothing, but return a non-zero exit status, indicating failure. Used to prevent stand-alone execution of a script file intended for execution in a specific context
- Run
activate <script>to make it executable (chmod +x ~/bin/<script>).
Done. The script is now ready to be executed.
