Try ./scriptname if your script is not in a directory in the PATH
enviroment varible (the current directory (.) is not in the path on most
new linux distros due to security concerns). I have a directory called
scripts in my path (echo "export PATH=$PATH:~/scripts" >> .profile, or
just edit .profile and add it) that I use to test scripts before putting
them into /usr/local/bin or /usr/bin.
