In Linux and Unix, you can use the sh
command to execute a shell script. The sh
command is a command-line interpreter that executes commands from a script or from standard input.
To execute a shell script with the sh
command, simply specify the path to the script as an argument to the sh
command. For example:
sh /path/to/script.shSource:www.lautturi.com
This will execute the script script.sh
in the current shell.
You can also use the bash
command to execute a shell script. The bash
command is a command-line interpreter that is similar to sh
, but it has additional features and is more commonly used as the default shell in Linux systems.
To execute a shell script with the bash
command, use the following syntax:
bash /path/to/script.sh
This will execute the script script.sh
in a new bash
shell.

and bash
commands may not recognize all features and syntax of the script, depending on the shell that was used to create the script. For example, if the script was created with the zsh
shell, it may need to be executed with the zsh
command to work properly.
