No, not weird, normal Linux. What you needed was ./mutil mailout.ini| and so 
on. The Events start in /mystic by default, so ./name to run something.
Generally it can be safer to do the full path like /mystic/mutil mailout.ini
but it's not needed. It just makes it easier to remember where things are.
It also works better when doing odd things like:
(DD) Exec external program                  ./mystic -ver
(GT) Display line of text                   |PA
which will show the mystic version to the BBS user. Sometimes you need a |CR
or two in front of the |PA (pause) for multi-line output to work. Sometimes
you need the full path to get it to work as well, I experiment with everything
I can ;)
