Hi,
	I'm encountering weird problems with sh (and sometimes csh)
dying on some shell scripts depending on whether or not my first line in
the script is a comment like:
# This script does this (but not that)

(It dies when the comment is there.)

	I am looking for ANY hint/story/random knowledge concerning
# in shell scripts.

	ANY bit of information will be appreciated.

	Thanks,
				Alex
