Hello,
You changed the "permissions" of the file but didn't make the file "executable".
Uh, no; 755 *is* executable mode for user/group/world. Something else
has gotten messed up in the file in question. Really, this is so basic:08:48 /tmp $ cat > example.rb
#!/usr/bin/env rubyputs "hello"
08:48 /tmp $ ./example.rb
bash: ./example.rb: Permission denied
08:48 /tmp $ ruby ./example.rb
hello
08:48 /tmp $ chmod 755 example.rb
08:48 /tmp $ ./example.rb
hello
08:48 /tmp $
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.
Also, is there anyway to change the "kaye@kaye-R439-R478" ? It's
probably a Ubuntu question but what the heck....gksudo gedit /etc/hostname
Seriously, you would suggest someone change their *hostname*
just to have different prompt text?
I didn't *suggest* that. I did not suggest anything for that matter.
I just answered a very straight forward question.
When it can be configured to show actual *useful* information like
the directory you're in or which git branch is checked out?
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???
And to the OP - yes, it's an Ubuntu/shell question, and you should
make time to learn about working in a command-line environment;
it will be effort well-spent.--
