Not that there's being a vote taken or anything, but I would like to
support that notion.  I have several "trampoline" scripts, a bat file
doing nothing but invoking a corresponding bash shell script or Perl
program.  I have to hard-code a location for the bash / perl
interpreter, but those locations change from user to user (some people
install under c:\, some under the standard location).  I would like to
have the scripts work for any system.
