as people have said .. /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin .. BUT ..
just to be a pita...
if you have a sun box or hp or aix or gazillion distro
on different architecture .. you'd have to use:
/usr/bin is usually on the local disk, so problems, but
/home/{$user}/bin.`uname -m`
/usr/local/bin.`uname -m`
both can be sometimes an NFS resource which will need
the whackynes of "uname -m"
and since scripts are typically independent of 'architecture",
i use /usr/local/scripts for all user defined scripts
and add mroe fun when you have /usr/local/bin/perl vs
/usr/bin/perl vs ... or /bin/bash vs /bin/sh being different
