I have forgotten the following patch to
fhandler_disk_file::check_execable(),
which is sure a point of discussion, but
if working with tcsh, it's easier, to
remove all .exe suffixes from the
files.
IMHO, the following patch, which checks
the suffix '.sh' and moreover the first
bytes in a file, slows down 'ls -l' only
a little bit, but gives more info.
