And if you don't do that rename step, and edit a program, unpredictable things happen. It's easiest to do with scripts. In the case of Perl, the interpreter reads the whole thing and then runs, pretty safe. In the case of Bash, it reads it line by line, so if the script changes underneath it, it will likely read the next line from the wrong spot.
