Newbie question cd var/qmail/bin/

I change my directory to var/qmail/bin/

Then i try to run the programs such as qmail-send, qmail-start etc..
I get the following error:
bash: qmail-showctl: command not found

This file is in the directory and it's colored green... Green, I assume
means it's a program file.

I am baffled.

With all do respect, you need to start learning UNIX and when you are
comfortable, start learning qmail.
Your current directory is not in the PATH environment variable so you
need to add dot forward slash './' in front of every command you
type.

Thanks for your kind reply.
I DO need to learn linux as well as qmail.

Practice makes perfect.

Cheers.
