Hi, this was something that was changed in the latest version. BruteX now must be installed using the install.sh script which installs brutex to /usr/share/brutex. This allows universal access by simply typing 'brutex ' after which should work.

Did you download the latest version and run the install.sh? If so, you can just run brutex directly (ie. not ./brutex ) as above.

In the meantime, I will look into making a backward compatible release to run direct from the script repo.

Its working now thx ! 👍
