Just write the specified line into a file. Plus start the file with the reference to the shell used to execute it :

supernova:~# echo '#!/bin/bash
> find . -type f -mtime +2 -exec rm {} \;' > myscript
supernova:~# cat myscript
#!/bin/bash
find . -type f -mtime +2 -exec rm {} \;

Then execute the script by calling it through your favorite shell:

supernova:~# bash myscript

Or make it executable and launch it as is:

supernova:~# chmod +x myscript
supernova:~# ./myscript

Hope this helped
