[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1525676, member: 110816"] That's correct, shell scripts need to be plain text to be executed by the shell (Bash in this case), whereas TextEdit by default chooses to create/safe files as Rich Text which gives you the flexibility to add formatting to text which is great for some reasons but not for this.. So switching to Plain Text Mode would take care of the problem for you if you wish to use TextEdit again or if this editrocket program works, then that's fine too.. [/QUOTE]
