ABC
# Make the Python ABC executable:
chmod +x ABC.py
# Run it as a normal user:
./ABC.py
placing ABC.py into system binary path (/usr/local/bin) so it runs anywhere as ‘ABC’?
# Move the ABC to /usr/local/bin and rename it:
sudo cp ABC.py /usr/local/bin/ABC
# Grant execution permissions:
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/ABC
# Verify ownership:
sudo chown root:root /usr/local/bin/ABC
# Now run ABC from any directory in terminal.
