I am using python 2.3.5 on a Linux system and have an odd problem dealing with the 'sha-bang' line. I have a file, driver.py which starts with

: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

There's almost certainly a carriage return as well as a newline in the shebang line.

Not so. I get the same result with python 2.3 and 2.4 on Debian Linux Testing. Nothing odd at all in the shebang.

What, you are telling me you've checked the file with a command like

  head driver.py | od -bc

and verified the absence of any extraneous characters?

regards
