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 Günter
