You can use the deno install command to save the file as an executable:

$ deno install hello-deno https://gist.githubusercontent.com/thgaskell/20d209a5da49be7a01933ec86d7ae908/raw/main.ts

After that, you may be prompted to add the deno binary path to your $PATH variable. Once your shell script resolves the deno binary path, you should be able to run the command with your chosen executable name:

$ hello-deno
Hello, World!
