Try adding
#!/usr/bin/python
as the first line of your scripts (substitute the appropriate
path/filename depending on whether it's python, perl, bash, etc.
and where the filename lives /usr/bin, /usr/local/bin, etc.)
Or if you're sure it's always going to be on your PATH you can use
#!env python
Then the filename extension doesn't matter.
I've even had luck invoking native win32 script interpreters, such as
ActiveState Perl this way such as:
#!/cygdrive/c/Perl/bin/perl
Hey, this stuff really does work like Unix!
