How do you make a file executable in unix?
How do you make a file executable in unix? I've tried -x. The file in question is a list of mysql commands. How would I make this file executable?

Thanks.

a list of mysql commands will never be executable.

you want to pipe them to a program like

cat commands.sql | mysql mydb
or
mysql mydb < commands.sql

right?
