Multiple platform scripts
Hello
I'm writing a script system in bash that I want to run on Un*x (SunOS), Linux, and cygwin also.
The scripts starts with the sha-bang #!/bin/bash, but I experienced that the bash interpreter path are different on these platforms.

My question is how can I manipulate the command interpreter line on my scripts
to run on each platform.
(I think to made a setup script to replace the first line in all of my scripts depending on the platform on which I'm running the scripts)
I also tried the:
#!/bin/bash
#!/usr/bin/local/bash
but if the command interpreter path are not correct in the first line, the OS does not looks for the command interpreter in the second line.

Many thanks beforehand

gst-complete

gst-complete-0.8(1)						   User Commands					       gst-complete-0.8(1)

NAME

       gst-complete-0.8, gst-complete - perform bash completion for gst-launch command lines

SYNOPSIS

       complete -Cgst-complete-0.8 gst-launch

       gst-complete [--gst-list-mm] [--gst-mm=string] [--print]

DESCRIPTION

       gst-complete-0.8 enables bash to provide context-sensitive tab completion for gst-launch command lines. See gst-launch(1) for the syntax of
       gst-launch command lines.

       You must have a version of bash that supports programmable completion. Such versions of bash provide the complete built-in command.

       gst-complete is a wrapper script that runs the latest installed version of gst-complete-X.X. For example, if both gst-complete-0.7 and gst-
       complete-0.8 are installed on your system, gst-complete runs gst-complete-0.8.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported by gst-complete-0.8 and gst-complete:

       --help	       Display detailed usage message. You can also use -? to specify this option.

       The following options are supported by gst-complete only:

       --gst-list-mm   List found major/minor versions. This option displays the versions that are available.

       --gst-mm=string Force  major/minor  version.  This  option  enables you to specify a specific version to run, if you do not want to run the
		       default version.

       --print	       Print wrapped command line. This option displays the command that will be run, and then runs the command.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: Generating the Registry of Available Plugins by Running gst-compprep

       Run the following command in your .bash_profile or other appropriate place:

       example% complete -C gst-complete-0.8 gst-launch

       Example 2: Running the Wrapper Script and Displaying the Command Name

       example% gst-complete --print
       /usr/bin/gst-complete-0.8

FILES

       The following files are used by this application:

       /usr/bin/gst-complete-0.Executable for bash completion for gst-launch

       /usr/bin/gst-complete   Wrapper script that runs the latest installed version of gst-complete-X.X
