The Shebang!

Hi, I always thought that #!/usr/bin/ksh means that the script would be executed in korn shell i.e. when we'll execute the script with this line as the very first line then the shell spawns a korn shell (in this case as we are using #!/usr/bin/ksh ) and the script gets executed. But I am...

Scripts without shebang

I see lot of ad-hoc shell scripts in our servers which don't have a shebang at the beginning . Does this mean that it will run on any shell ? Is it a good practice to create scripts (even ad-hoc ones) without shebang ?

NAME

       ps2pdf - Convert PostScript to PDF using ghostscript
       ps2pdf12 - Convert PostScript to PDF 1.2 (Acrobat 3-and-later compatible) using ghostscript
       ps2pdf13 - Convert PostScript to PDF 1.3 (Acrobat 4-and-later compatible) using ghostscript

SYNOPSIS

       ps2pdf  [options...] (input.[e]ps|-) [output.pdf|-]
       ps2pdf12  [options...] (input.[e]ps|-) [output.pdf|-]
       ps2pdf13  [options...] (input.[e]ps|-) [output.pdf|-]

DESCRIPTION

       The ps2pdf scripts are work-alikes for nearly all the functionality (but not the user interface) of Adobe's Acrobat(TM) Distiller(TM) prod-
       uct: they convert PostScript files to Portable Document Format (PDF) files.

       The three scripts differ as follows:

       -      ps2pdf12 will always produce PDF 1.2 output (Acrobat 3-and-later compatible).

       -      ps2pdf13 will always produce PDF 1.3 output (Acrobat 4-and-later compatible).

       -      ps2pdf per se currently produces PDF 1.2 output (Acrobat 3-and-later compatible). However, this may change in  the  future.  If  you
	      care  about  the	compatibility  level of the output, use ps2pdf12 or ps2pdf13, or use the -dCompatibility=1.x switch in the command
	      line.

       There are some limitations in ps2pdf's conversion. See the HTML documentation for more information.
