If you use vim for your editing, put this in your .vimrc file:

" automatically give executable permissions if file begins with #! and
" contains '/bin/' in the path

function ModeChange()
  if getline(1) =~ "^#!"
    if getline(1) =~ "/bin/"
      silent !chmod a+x <afile>
    endif
  endif
endfunction

au BufWritePost * call ModeChange()

I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god
than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other
possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.
