Or you need to “chmod +x file.rb” to make it ‘executable’ under UNIX and
clones (like linux).

I’m really surprised by that! Why did changing the permissions to 755
not allow it to be executed? It still sets the ‘x’ flag. I’ve used
both methods and either worked in FreeBSD, Debian, and Cygwin
environments. What is the difference? I Google’d and check the man
pages, but did not find an answer.

Thanks,

So according to you a user that doesn’t know how to change his hostname
will be able to use oh-my-zsh-like prompts and git/mercurial/svn/cvs/whatever???

I’m saying that a user not familiar with a CLI environment is best
served by learning its capabilities. And yes, that includes knowing
what a shell prompt represents, and how to change it.

YMMV,

has gotten messed up in the file in question. Really, this is so basic:

Yeah you’re right. My bad, I’ll die and go to hell for that.

However you don’t even need 755, 600 is enough to make it exec.

No it’s not, you actually need 700 … oh my … :frowning: I need to spent
some time in cli.
pays back! … (2 secs)

I didn’t suggest that. I did not suggest anything for that matter.
