    Funny story, in my first years of Linux, I always thought ‘sh’ was the only way to run downloaded programs in the terminal. I must have seen it on some forum and learned it that way. Much later I learned that I could just type this ‘./program’ and run them.

      TBF that does often require that you chmod +x them. Sometimes, that’s not worth the effort …
