Rick,

Thanks for the suggestion.  

I thought I posted to the group before: It turns out the problems was BBEdit’s 
default was to save the file with UTF-8 with BOM.  That was enough to make the 
file readable, but the first like, the Shebang line, started with an extra 
invisible character which kept throwing the interpreter off.  I resaved the 
file as UTF-8 No BOM and everything worked just fine.
