Not all the allusions in these slangy terms are clear.

An enchilada combines several foods inside a tortilla; a shooting match denotes a shooting competition; and a shebang is a rude hut or shelter.

shebang (operating system)(Or "shebang line", "bang path")/sh*-bang'/ (From "sharp" and "bang") The magic cookie"#!" used in Unix to mark the start of a script, e.g. ashell script or Perl script.
Under Unix, if the first two bytes of an executable fileare "#!", the kernel treats the file as a script rather thana machine code program. The word following the "!" (i.e.,everything up to the first whitespace) is used as thepathname of the interpreter. For example, if the firstline of an executable is
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
the script will be treated as a Perl script and passed as anargument to /usr/local/bin/perl to be interpreted. Somevariants of Unix also allow one or more parameters to bepassed to the interpreter, for example, you can write
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
and the script will be started as if you typed
/usr/bin/perl -w
on the command line. Also, most modern kernels ignore anywhitespace between the "!" and the interpreter pathname. Evensome modern kernels have fairly small limits (e.g. 32) on thelength of line they will accept, making long pathnames andarguments somewhat unportable.
