what exactly is not working?

the export k is bash syntax to declare a global variable but nothing to worry about that in your case. Not sure if this might cause the issue but there need to be at least a ; in between the export k and for k in

EDIT: OK, after your reformat the ; is not gonna be an issue ;)

yes indeed, this is all linux cmdline.

What you need to do is to put all those commands (exactly how they are mentioned here) in a file (eg. runABySS.sh) and then run it on your machine with eg bash runABySS.sh .
