Perl actually has executable scripts (with .bat extension), using this
preamble:
@rem = '--*-Perl-*--
@echo off
if "%OS%" == "Windows_NT" goto WinNT
perl -x -S "%0" %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
goto endofperl
:WinNT
perl -x -S %0 %*
if NOT "%COMSPEC%" == "%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe" goto endofperl
if %errorlevel% == 9009 echo You do not have Perl in your PATH.
if errorlevel 1 goto script_failed_so_exit_with_non_zero_val 2>nul
goto endofperl
@rem ';
#!perl
@ character is meaningless for python, but it provides other workaround
-- the -x option.
It should be possible to simply put:
@python -x %0 %* & goto :EOF
at the start. It would only work on Windows NT/XP. For Windows 95/98/ME
it would have to be:
@python -x "%0" %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 & goto :EOF
(and I am not sure they would actually recognize the :EOF thing)
Actually, if someone could think of a way to prevent python from parsing
end of file somehow, we could have:
@goto endofpython
at the start and
:endofperl
<something like the perl preamble above>
