Hi folks,
I'm accustomed to starting my various Python and Perl files with:
#!/usr/bin/env python
or
#!/usr/bin/env perl
to deal with the situation where the python or perl binary lives in
different places on different systems (please don't reply suggesting I
just move it or just install Debian or something, some of us still work
in archaic environments where we don't have root on servers we use!!!!)
However, you can't pass arguments to whatever you're invoking, thanks to
the limits of the #! interpretion ("#!/usr/bin/env perl -w" at the top
of a file causes a search for a binary named "perl -w"). What workaround
do people use for this problem in general? (I know -w is equivalent to
"use warnings;" so I know the Perl workaround)
-Mary
