From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Sorry I meant nix-shell -p, I didn't read your original comment properly apparently
It's definitely an option as op wants to run one script from the sounds of it, nix-shell not nix shell is perfect for that
It's a bit needlessly confusing that there are two entirely separate commands with the same name and thought you were talking about the original one
