Or perhaps rather which interpreter to use to execute the file. Examples of shebang lines which aren't for "shells" in the traditional sense might be: #!/usr/sbin/nft -f #!/usr/bin/env python3 #!/usr/bin/perl or if you are feeling evil... :-) #!/bin/sed -e 1d -- Michael Kjörling 🔗 https://michael.kjorling.se “Remember when, on the Internet, nobody cared that you were a dog?”
