bash Scripts

[George Toft]

Run hexdump on the script and post the results.  The hexdump should look
*exactly* like this:
$ hexdump -xc test
0000000    2123    622f    6e69    622f    7361    0a68    6f66    2072
0000000   #   !   /   b   i   n   /   b   a   s   h  \n   f   o   r    
0000010    2069    6e69    6020    6573    2071    2031    3031    3b60
0000010   i       i   n       `   s   e   q       1       1   0   `   ;
0000020    640a    0a6f    2020    2020    2020    2020    6365    6f68
0000020  \n   d   o  \n                                   e   c   h   o
0000030    2420    0a69    6f64    656e    000a                        
0000030       $   i  \n   d   o   n   e  \n
