  I'm no expert, but why are you running your programs with sh?

if you run it: /opt/limewire/runLime.sh it will be executed by
bash, most of the features we love are in bash but not in sh.

Why won't bash accept a full path?

   My bash does, I am using version 2.05a and 2.05b is available at:

http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bash

  I study bash programming daily, all of my script files start with:

#!/bin/bash so they are run by bash, not sh.
