this worked good for my own little helping scripts. they are not complicated just some commands.

but I have a script to start JAlbum as well it gives me
	me at meme:~$ JAlbum
	bash: /home/me/bin/JAlbum: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Permission denied

I changed it to bash but the message was the same except for the bash.
The script is actually a link to a different dir, but I have all rights.

when I call sh ~/bin/JAlbum it works?

Cheers, seb
