Set the path in environment variable and try to execute.

Code:
 export env_variable=PATH

Set PATH variable including the directory where your shell scripts locate in.
Or execute it using absolute path.

#and iam trying to execute ..alias name (show)
i.e
>show

when ever you are setting the alias, you need to provide the absolute path

Code:
 
alias show='sh /absolute/path/of/1.sh'
