This also appears to be a duplicate question - Sff_Extract Question - it should probably be closed here and discussion continued at the original post.

This is off topic, it's a very basic Unix shell question.

Try:

Just ensure that:

ls /usr/local/bin/sff_extract

returns evidence that sff_extract exists at that location then:

sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/sff_extract
/usr/local/bin/sff_extract

./sff_extract will only work on a script in your current working directory.

Above the sff_extract file is located in the Desktop folder. But then you switch to the mira folder that does not have this script.
