That's because in linux if you type '{any command here} ...' it by default
searches your $PATH. You can see your path by typing "echo $PATH", but the
important detail is that your path does not include the current working
directory. So you have to tell linux I want the nw that's located at
"./nw". The ./ tells it look in the current directory. You could also run
it via "/full/path/to/nw" and that'd work. And if you want to be able to
run it from anywhere, create a symlink somewhere in your path, for example
"ln -s {/path/to/nw} /usr/local/bin/nw"
