I do not know about OS X, but generally:

To install a script as executable, you have to 

1. move or copy or link the file to a place the OS looks for executable files
   (the PATH)
   
2. tell the OS that it is executable (use the .exe or .com ending on DOS and
   related systems, use `chmod +x <the-script>` on Unix)
   
   
Hope this helps
