Normally I use Connect Direct for copying files from Mainframes to UNIX systems and vice versa and I dont know whether it works the way you tried or not since Im not quite familiar with mainframes.
I think one thing you got wrong there is the She-Bang.
#! /usr/local/bin/move_prom indicates that all commands in your shell script are being processed by the binary /usr/local/bin/move_prom ... Ive never heard of something like this. You should rather try using a shell to execute a shell script.
#!/bin/ksh
for example or any other shell available.
Afterwards you need to make it executable with something like
# chmod +x yourscript.sh
and then run it
# ./yourscript.sh
...
If something doesnt work paste the output you get and I will try to help.
Good luck.

GZEXE(1) General Commands Manual GZEXE(1)
NAME
gzexe - compress executable files in place
SYNOPSIS
gzexe name ...
DESCRIPTION
The gzexe utility allows you to compress executables in place and have them automatically uncompress and execute when you run them (at a
penalty in performance). For example if you execute ``gzexe /usr/bin/gdb'' it will create the following two files:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1026675 Jun 7 13:53 /usr/bin/gdb
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2304524 May 30 13:02 /usr/bin/gdb~
/usr/bin/gdb~ is the original file and /usr/bin/gdb is the self-uncompressing executable file. You can remove /usr/bin/gdb~ once you are
sure that /usr/bin/gdb works properly.
This utility is most useful on systems with very small disks.
OPTIONS
-d Decompress the given executables instead of compressing them.
SEE ALSO
gzip(1), znew(1), zmore(1), zcmp(1), zforce(1)
CAVEATS
The compressed executable is a shell script. This may create some security holes. In particular, the compressed executable relies on the
PATH environment variable to find gzip and some standard utilities (basename, chmod, ln, mkdir, mktemp, rm, sleep, and tail).
BUGS
gzexe attempts to retain the original file attributes on the compressed executable, but you may have to fix them manually in some cases,
using chmod or chown.
