I'm not unhappy, but it seems an unnecessary restriction. An
alternative would be to change GolfScore() to something like
sub GolfScore {
my $script = shift;
open(FF, $script) or die "error: open '$script'";
local($/, $_);
$_ = <FF>;
close(FF);
s/^#!.*?perl(.*)\n/$1/; # remove shebang except parameters
s/\n$//; # delete final newline in file
return length;
}
