What does a hex view of your shell script say the line ending are? For example, I have a working script and my line endings are \x0A My Windows-y scripts all have \x0D\x0A You can try u2d, then d2u to see if that can clean up wonky line endings.
Here is an example of one of my unsophisticated .sh files; it was intended to clean up after a latex session: rm *.div *.aux *.log
rm is actually in your path, yes?
when I run the clean.sh (this was the name I gave to it), I get the 'command not found' error reply.
This is the same error you get when bash doesn't understand the line endings. What sort of mount (binary vs. text) are your shells scripts on? What shell do you run? The stuff we are talking about is all bash.
