Just the syntax - args trailing %* (known to unix folk as $*), quoted %1 command, etc.
Quite different from the Unix #!script-cmd :)

Of course - the simplest way (if you don't trust the registry association for
security - which I don't) is to create a .wsh file in order to embed the shebang,
since #! would be an error to .vb or .js script files ...
-- script.wsh -------------------
#!CScript.exe "%1"
[ScriptFile]
Path=c:\web\cgi-bin\script.vb
[Options]
Timeout=10
DisplayLogo=0
BatchMode=1
-- end script.wsh ---------------
So yes - shebangs work even with cscript ;)
