e/Interpreter directive

New Query

Information
has glosseng: An interpreter directive is a single line of text at the beginning of a file which determines what command interpreter is used to parse and execute the file's content. In its most common form, a Unix command script, it consists of an initial "magic number", hexadecimal 0x23 0x21, represented in ASCII as #! (a number sign and an exclamation point), optional spaces or tabs, the pathname of an interpreter command, any additional parameters, and a newline character. When the command is executed, it is converted to an execution of the interpreter, with the parameters and, through a method somewhat dependent on the operating system, a filename associated with the script itself from which the interpreter is expected to take input, followed by any additional arguments present on the command line where the command was invoked.
