So apparently, I can\'t source a script if that script is in the current directory. For example,

Ok

Answer 1

Quoting the source man page:

source filename [arguments]

....

If filename does not contain a slash, file names in PATH are used to find the directory containing file- name.

So... source is trying to search your script.sh in the folders contained in PATH.

If you want to source a file in the current folder use

source ./script.sh
