Marcelo posted a larger example, but maybe a very small example might be
helpful. Put the following in some file (I called it hello.el but the
name does not really matter):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#! /usr/local/bin/emacs --script

(message "Hello World!")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Make it executable:

  chmod +x hello.el

and run it:

  ./hello.el
