Oh.  Yeah Geany read shebangs and use those over the extension to determine the 
file type.  In your example it's indeed impractical because there is actually 2 
different syntax in the same file, but I'm afraid it's a little too complex to 
deal with, as it measn actually understanding what the shell script *does*.

Also, the `env` technique mentioned in your link is really better unless it 
actually has a drawback for you, because it's simpler, spawns a simpler 
intermediate program (`env` is a lot lighter than `sh` -- let alone `bash`), 
and is common in other languages too, like Python (which commonly uses 
`#!/usr/bin/env python`).
And it won't confuse tools parsing the shebang line either, because they will 
either not know about the language `env` uses, or they will understand the 
construct and read the name of the next argument (so here that would be `wish`) 
and base a guess on that.
