[Bug 1443591] Re: users should not have to type and extra "." in order to run a shell script

 

Silly question - did you set the x file permissions (chmod +x) for the
script? Otherwise...

# ./README
bash: ./README: Permission denied

Title:
  users should not have to type and extra "." in order to run a shell
  script

Status in Terminal application for Ubuntu devices:
  New
Status in apparmor-easyprof-ubuntu package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  In the Ubuntu Touch Terminal, the user is required to type and extra
  "."  in order to run a shell script.

  for example:
  the user has written a script titled "do_some_stuff.sh"
  in order to run the script, the user must type ". ./do_some_stuff.sh"

  The user experience should mirror the functionality of desktop Ubuntu
  where the user would only need to type "./do_some_stuff.sh"
