"script" is most likely the name of a command installed on your system (on mine, it's /usr/bin/script). Try "man script" and see. So if you really want to call your script "script", but you have to either call it using its path (./bin/script in your example), or make sure that the shell finds it before the system command for example by modifying PATH. To be honest, I would just pick a different name for your script. -- D.
