At least I think that's the right place to experiment. In the long run, there's precedent for including this kind of thing in bash, as Stefano mentioned: | shell_execve (execute_cmd.c) does check for missing interpretors for | scripts (with shebangs) but not for ELFs | | $ cat > testscript | #!/bin/foobarbaz | $ chmod +x testscript | $ testscript | bash: ./testscript: /bin/foobarbaz: bad interpreter: No such file or directory Thanks for your thoughtfulness.
