quick question.
sorry, this is not a question of Ruby but a more general inquiry.
I'd like to ask you how do you describe '#!' which we always put at the
head of the scripting source code file.
I know that its pronunciation is 'she bang' but am not sure that this
'she bang' would be correct description or not.

greetings, James.
your information has made my eyes open wider.
shebang /sh*-bang/ n.
this regexp means that it has some variety of expressions or dialects,
right? intriguing

greetings, Jim.
thanx to your quick reply.
oh, it's authorized name is... 'Berkeley shebang hack' / 'Berkeley #! hack'.
and the name of the followings to the #! is called 'interrupter'.
good, good, that' much more than I'd like to know. thank you.
let me explain the background of this question.
yesterday, i participated a conference/meeting regarding of light-weight
languages ( of course including ruby ), and found that one of the most
skilful guys does not know how to pronounce it.
many of japanese programmers call it 'sharp BIKKURI'.
'BIKKURI' means 'surprise' in japanese.
and, i found myself that do not know how to "write" it in flat english.
hmm... 'interrupter'... now i feel that i have understood more about how
it works.
good weekend, Jim.

i think that's actually a pronunciation guideline. so that just means that you don't really pronounce the 'e', just sh'bang, not sheee bang

by the way, a 'BIKKURI' in english is an exclamation mark. exclamation is like "MAJIDE!", so yeah, if you were to describe these two symbols just in english, it would:
'#' = 'pound sign' in america, 'hash symbol' in britain or australia
'!' = exclamation mark or exclamation point (exclamation is the noun of the verb 'to exclaim')
cheers
iain
how can i thank you, iain.
you are right. as in your reply... i used to pronouce it 'shE bang'.

greetings iain.
thanx a lot to your correction: interrupter => interpreter.
i am very lucky to be corrected that before i use it to my co-workers.
it's embarrassing, but 'interrupter' sounds me a very good explanation of
its role. anyway, it is true that i am bad at reading english.
and much gratitude to you for many valuable information.
especially, "MAJIDE!". ( MAJI-SSUKA? = really true? )

mochiron oshiete kureru!
And US hacker slang for the ! is "bang" ("pling" in the UK, though I think
"bang" has caught on there too), hence the "bang" in "shebang".
