So these were all DOS scripts once, were they?

I name my scripts in ~/bin with an extension corresponding to their
contents: .pl .py .sh etc. Where I'm working on alternative versions,
I might have more than one language. Extensionless filenames are
either links or binaries. What's bad about this? Or is it just
snobbery: Look, we don't need extensions.

Cheers,
David.
