Hi,
	I'm a bit stuck with bash shell scripts.  I'm using bash 4.7 by the
way.  First they do not seem to be executable.  However, they do run
some of the time.  I think if I look at them with less after that the
system seems to know what they are.  Second I thought that these were a
wee bit like .bat files once the header was set up all you needed on the
second etc. lines was:-
my_prog  my_data
		however, it can not find my_prog which is in ~/bin.  I've got a book
on bash but it gives lots of more complicated examples and I seem to be
missing out on the really basic stuff.  Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

		Regards Ian.
