@ichmoimeyo Thanks for the links, i downloaded the file and i'll read it on my way to work tomorrow.

@dormant I had #!/bin/bash because my live-cd used this. I corrected it.

@paulh & @TA-t3 So i have to make the file executable first. And i could not save the script on the memory card. Ok, this i understand.
Saving the file in the MyDokuments wouldn't work too, would it?

But I'm not sure if i understand, what you mean with :

It can be a relative path, so this will do:

./somescript
Do i have to put the path into the script? or do i need it when i execute the script?

What i was trying to do. Save the skript as a file and execute it with a pen tab/klick.

Thanks again for the help!
