in the directory the file is in type "./something.bin"

or... type the full path to it... "/home/ah/something.bin"

the "./" just means current directory.

you might have to set urself permission to execute, you can do so by:

chmod u+x thisfile.bin

Thanks guys.
I knew how to execute it, but it kept faulting out. I finally figured out that I didn't have the right permissions. I got it working now.
