You have to make the scripts executable.
For a script in your home folder just right click it and select properties. In the "Rights" tab there's a tick box to do that

Hi

Should be just

Code: Select all

./configure

Code: Select all

make

Code: Select all

sudo make install

(Providing you have thae correct libraries installed)

The configuring thing is also something, but not all scripts need that.
You should have chosen "Run in terminal"
That's the case with mintwifi.py (spelling may be incorrect)
