The current directory is not in your path. Use "./a" instead of "a".
In a few years, after you become accustomed to typing "./", then
add "." at the end of your path.

Do not use "smart quotes" (they may have been added by your mail
client). Some programs will look for a "TMPDIR" variable. You may
want to add that in addition to "TMP" and "TEMP".
