It is possible to type the name of the file and execute it. This goes for .sh files as well as perl scripts. Just remember that when trying to execute a .pl file (e.g. script.pl) you type at the prompt
script.pl vor script.sh you would need to type script.sh Don't forget to type type the extension. Extensions aren't used in Linux to determine if a file is executable like in w32. The extension is just to let the user know what kind of a script it is, and it must be typed along with the rest of the file name at the prompt for it to execute. HTH.
