I'm new to bash, and I've literally spent hours trying to figure this out but I'm stuck. 

I'm writing a script which will auto-execute upon completion of a download in pyLoad. I need to check if the first word of the package name is "Public". 

Whilst trying to debug, I've gotten this so far:

```
#!/bin/sh
PACKAGE="$1"
PATH="$2"

FIRST=$(echo $PACKAGE|awk '{print $1}')
echo "First word is: $FIRST"

```

Running this by means of `sh download.sh "test package" ~/` returns

```
download.sh: 5: download.sh: awk: not found

```

I get the same result whether "test package" is in quotes or not. 

My aim is to get to something like this:

```
if [ $FIRST == "public"  ]
then
    # Move to public folder
else
    # Do nothing
fi

```

Any help would be appreciated.
