The shebang line was the thing that was needed, thanks! Interesting that bash
doesn't need one. I don't recall seeing in the fish documentation that it's
required; maybe only on some OS's?

do you need to say
./bin/cccc
?
(mainly if '.' is not on your path, which it probably isn't by default for
security/predictability reasons)
Also it's true, your file either: needs to have the executable permissions set,
and start with a #! line,
or I suppose you could run inside your shell-session using
source bin/cccc
(or maybe this line also needs to use "./bin/cccc", not sure)
