Greetings,
In is_exec.c, there is a list of extensions (listed in the code snippet 
below) that automatically designate executable files. This list doesn't 
include .sh, .ksh, .pl, and .sed. Was this done on purpose or should they 
indeed be added to the list?

/* A list of extensions which designate executable files.  These
   are NOT tested for the magic number.  */
static char executables[] = "|EXE|COM|BAT|BTM|DLL|VXD|";
