LInux mint does not execute scipts[SOLVED]

[pksucks]

I have written a simple script
#! /bin/bash
echo "Hello World"

the script is saved as file.sh

when i do
chmod u+x file.sh
to make it executable and then type file.sh on te terminal it says
file.sh: command not found

why? Doesn't Linux mint support shell scripting ?

Before you start to make accusations of things not working, perhaps you should learn how to do things properly? The way to run a .sh file is sh <path>/<filename>.sh - note the <path>, if the file is in the current directory you have to put '.' as the path (without the quotes).

Thanks I was silly not to use ./filename. I was using filename
