Unless you give a pathname for the command to be executed that contains a slash character, the command must be in a directory on your command search path. If you are using a shell that uses basic Bourne shell syntax, the command search path is specified by the PATH shell variable. If you issue the command:
echo "$PATH" you will see a list of directories separated by colons. Many administrators set up the default PATH for users on their system to include the current directory; others don't. It looks like yours doesn't. There are several ways to execute nu in this situation. They include:
Specify a pathname for your script that contains a /, such as:
Add the current directory to your PATH:
then run:
Move your shell script to a directory that is on your search path:
(at least most sysadmins will have this directory in your search path),and then run it:

shtool-path
SHTOOL-PATH.TMP(1) GNU Portable Shell Tool SHTOOL-PATH.TMP(1)NAME
shtool-path - GNU shtool command dealing with shell path variables
SYNOPSIS
shtool path [-s|--suppress] [-r|--reverse] [-d|--dirname] [-b|--basename] [-m|--magic] [-p|--path path] str [str ...]
DESCRIPTION
This command deals with shell $PATH variables. It can find a program through one or more filenames given by one or more str arguments. It
prints the absolute filesystem path to the program displayed on "stdout" plus an exit code of 0 if it was really found.
OPTIONS
The following command line options are available.
-s, --suppress
Supress output. Useful to only test whether a program exists with the help of the return code.
-r, --reverse
Transform a forward path to a subdirectory into a reverse path.
-d, --dirname
Output the directory name of str.
-b, --basename
Output the base name of str.
-m, --magic
Enable advanced magic search for ""perl"" and ""cpp"".
-p, --path path
Search in path. Default is to search in $PATH.
EXAMPLE
# shell script
awk=`shtool path -p "${PATH}:." gawk nawk awk`
perl=`shtool path -m perl`
cpp=`shtool path -m cpp`
revpath=`shtool path -r path/to/subdir`
HISTORY
The GNU shtool path command was originally written by Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 1998 for Apache. It was later taken
over into GNU shtool.
