Can anyone help me? I have experience with BSD system's use of #! to
specify an interpreter. The problem is that I am on system V.3.2 and
want to mix a combination of Bourne and C shell scripts. I am coming
to the conclusion that the scripts can not contain anything that will
specify what interpreter will execute on them. I have a mix of people
who use the Bourne shell and the C shell as their login shells. Ho do
I execute an arbitrary command without having to know what language
the command is written in? Please email me and if there is enough
interest I will summarize. Thanks in advance.
