Makefile doesn't execute....  the "make" command executes.  As I
mentioned, Makefile is just input to make (a.k.a. /usr/bin/make).

I don't know what you mean by *.sh since the concept of extensions
doesn't exist under Linux.  But you may also be interested to know that
"shell" scripts (or files containing shell scripts) need not be executable.

[egreshko@meimei bin]$ ll killfox
-rwxrwxr-x. 1 egreshko egreshko 63 May 25  2011 killfox
[egreshko@meimei bin]$ ./killfox
firefox-bin: no process found
plugin-container: no process found

But also....

[egreshko@meimei bin]$ chmod -x killfox
[egreshko@meimei bin]$ ll killfox
-rw-rw-r--. 1 egreshko egreshko 63 May 25  2011 killfox
[egreshko@meimei bin]$ sh ./killfox
firefox-bin: no process found
plugin-container: no process found
