I like run, for the short version what about ! (as in vi)?  Maybe

I disagree. Firstly, "!" is very inconsistent with the current shorthand
forms. I think the "x" makes more since from the point of view that its
very easy to associate with exec (the first syllable is pronounced as
an "x"). "x" is also used by other commands to mean executable (for
example, "chmod +x").
