Batch file using terminal HEEELLLLPPP

Question

All i want to do is make a batch file, make it run a .jar file with this command
java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.jar nogui
This basical runs the file wich is a server with more ram
But i have made a batch file and no matter wich command, even (ls) will not work, please someone, i just need a file that will execute commands like a batch file on windows, you click it and it does what ever is in the codes.
So basicaly, i need it to a find directory using cd then run the command given. but nothing works.

so my file icon says shell, and it has these lines in it
#!/bin/bash
cd desktop
Even this simple command does nothing, i have also tried ls, and say, and also a bagillion other commands but it only gives me this error
I do not think you have had enough time to enter a bagillion commands

whats wrong
I do not know what is in your hello.command file, but it very much looks like there are lines such as
{rtf1ansiansicpg1252cocoartf1038cocoasubrtf350
I do not know what that is doing there, but is is not something the shell knows how to execute.
I also made a new file, and now its saying i dont have the privileges.
Did you make the file executable using the "chmod +x filename" command?
Maybe you could post your script so we can analyze it. When you do this, put it between a pair of tags so that the forum software does not mess with its contents and steal some of the characters as formatting meta-characters
