I need to run python scripts from anywhere on my Linux pc.
I have a folder name Tools that hold 100 Scripts and I wonder if there is any way to just write the name of the script in the terminal without having to move to the specific folder.

You could add that folder to your $PATH variable:
export PATH=${PATH}:/Tools
If you place this statement in a file that's executed when you open a shell (e.g., .bashrc if you use bash), you won't need to manually run it again.
Try to create alias: $ alias shortName="your custom command here"
