Did you enter it as
$ ./myfile
or as
$ myfile
The current directory is deliberately not part of the default path.

Subject: shebang (#!) question
I wrote a simple script to print "Hello World" using
gawk. I would like to execute this script without
typing on the command line "gawk -f *filename*". the
script is as follows:
#!/usr/bin/gawk -f
BEGIN {print "Hello World"}
I chmod(ed) the file to be executable, but yet in
Linux it does not recognize the script as a command.
The error message says "Command not found".
I have the same script on another unix machine and it
works perfectly. does anyone have a clue to what's
going on?
Thanks,
Perplexed neophyte
