[Scilab-Dev] Scilab and shebang

[Mathieu Dubois]

Hello everybody,

I have been using scilab for several years now and I wanted to propose 
an enhancement: it would be really cool to be able to execute scilab 
scripts on the terminal (like it is possible in python, octave, etc.). 
Note that this grew out of my needs so it's not just "this feature seems 
cool, let's add it".

I'm not an expert but I don't think this is possible right now. Most of 
you probably knows the shebang mechanism under UNIX so I was wondering 
if this is a possible way to add this feature (maybe for some reason it 
is impossible). Just out of curiosity I have cloned the scilab 5 
repositories but I couldn't find a place to start modifying it.

Anyway, I have written a SEP (according to the current counter, this 
could become SEP 71) but I don't know how to submit it. Do I have to 
send it to this ML?
