I think Emilia means what's the difference. From what little I know, #!/usr/bin/env python will choose the first python that's in your path. Were as the second option, you explicitly choose which instance of python you want. I'm using using python from Activestate. So my shebang is to the Activestate directory for python. If I'm wrong, please correct.

The real difference here is that by using the "env" command, you have the option to input many different settings preferences before calling the python of your choice. The statement above, is a very simple choice of the python based upon the current environment, but it could be augmented very easily. I suggest that you check out the man page for the command "env". -- David Duncan Registered Linux User #279425 http://counter.li.org
