| The text file starts with #! /usr/bin/wish
This line is for the script itself to use the "wish" or WIndowing SHell
program to run the script. As long as it is installed and in the /usr/bin/
directory the script should run. As mentioned you need to set the
execution bit as described above.
Since I do everything from the command line this one is easy.
First, do ls -l filename; that should verify what you told us; it's
readable and writable by you, but not executable;
(owner, etc) -rw-r--r-- filename
then do
chmod 755 filename
now check: ls -l should give
(owner, etc)

I have a text file that appears to be a script to run an acct app. I
cannot execute it, and it shows in the file manager as a 'plain text file'.
Right clicking on properties then permissions, there is no check box for
'make executable'.
The text file starts with #! /usr/bin/wish
How do
Typically the catch process for what you experienced is time. If the
external monitor blanked because of setting conflict then the confirmation
window, which would pop up, would time out after 30 seconds I believe. If
you have not confirmed to keep changes then the system would revert to the
I have had to reboot my notebook today in my lecture, because of blank
screen.
What happend?
I attached an external monitor (projector) and with xfce4-display-settings
I selected this monitor only, instead of mirror mode. The external monitor
was unable to handle my resolution, so it went blank
