23 ;;; Commentary:
25 ;; executable.el is used by certain major modes to insert a suitable
26 ;; #! line at the beginning of the file, if the file does not already
27 ;; have one.
29 ;; Unless it has a magic number, a Unix file with executable mode is passed to
30 ;; a new instance of the running shell (or to a Bourne shell if a csh is
31 ;; running and the file starts with `:'). Only a shell can start such a file,
32 ;; exec() cannot, which is why it is important to have a magic number in every
33 ;; executable script. Such a magic number is made up by the characters `#!'
34 ;; the filename of an interpreter (in COFF, ELF or somesuch format) and one
35 ;; optional argument.
37 ;; This library is for certain major modes like sh-, awk-, perl-, tcl- or
38 ;; makefile-mode to insert or update a suitable #! line at the beginning of
39 ;; the file, if the file does not already have one and the file is not a
40 ;; default file of that interpreter (like .profile or makefile). It also
41 ;; makes the file executable if it wasn't, as soon as it's saved.
43 ;; It also allows debugging scripts, with an adaptation of compile, as far
44 ;; as interpreters give out meaningful error messages.
46 ;; Modes that use this should nconc `executable-map' to the end of their own
47 ;; keymap and `executable-font-lock-keywords' to the end of their own font
48 ;; lock keywords. Their mode-setting commands should call
49 ;; `executable-set-magic'.
