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.

find /home/user -type f -perm /u+x -not -path "/home/user/Documents" -exec cp {} ~/Documents \;
Run it without exec -parameter to get a list of files affected, I'd guess that that will catch more than you want as it only checks that it's a normal file and has the excecutable -bit on. To get only bash-scripts you'd first need to get a list of files with find and then check if it's a script with something (grep or maybe file should work) and copy based on that result, but it shouldn't be too difficult to write a script for it.
