[Q] What's this shebang '#!/hint/zsh'? #376

Closed mtesseract closed 7 months ago

mtesseract commented 1 year ago

Hi. I have seen multiple occurrences in this repo of the shebang line:

#!/hint/zsh

I couldn't find any comment or explanation on this. I have never seen a directory /hint being referenced, I am also not aware of any systems where this is a standard path containing shells. What is the meaning of this? Is it expected that some magical substitution or something similar is going on (when?)?

(Context: I'd like to use the fzf tmux popup code in this repo, on macOS).

Thank you, Moritz

I just want to get syntax highlighting in the editor, without giving the impression that these files are executable.

/hint is nothing special, it will be ignored by most editors.
