     The interpretation of '#!' lines is highly OS-dependent.  Some operating
     systems limit the length of '#!' lines to 32, 80, 127, or 255 characters.
     Some operating systems require a space after '#!', and or require the path
     that follows to be absolute.  Some operating systems will search the 'PATH'
     environment variable for the specified interpreter, others will not.  When
     creating programs that use '#!' lines, or using such programs written by
     others, be sure to adjust the line as appropriate for your operating system.
     For more information on this subject, you can visit the
     "shebang site":http://homepages.cwi.nl/~aeb/std/shebang/, which lists useful
     '#!' line information for various operating systems.
   
     Note that Windows does not support '#!' lines at all, so programs that use
     them must be run using batch files when run on Windows, unless you have a
     Unix-like shell available (e.g. Cygwin).
