Hi Thorsten,


Unfortunately, it looks like this may need to be a stronger condition: I
think that only BSD-ish systems support passing extra arguments through
the shebang.  Are you running on a Linux system?

Let me check something...

Ok, after reading this a bit, I'm guessing that

    #!/usr/bin/env python {options}

might not be so portable, as the shebang feature seems to behave subtly
different between all the the Unices.


Good luck to you!
