I hope I'm not just being stupid (it has happened before) but - when I am
running BASH-1.04 and I try to execute a Bourne shell script - I can't get 
/bin/sh to execute it -- BASH tries to do it. I have tried putting #!/bin/sh
as the first line of the shell script - but BASH continues to try to execute
it - itself. It doesn't seem right that I have to throw away all of my old
shell scripts in order to run BASH. This is probably not a BASH bug - but just
a problem with my understanding of how this works.
