octave shebang

[Paul Kienzle]

I'm looking for an octave shebang which doesn't depend on where octave 
is installed but instead picks it up from the path.

This is the best I came up with:

        #!/bin/sh
        cat <<EOF | octave -q

This works even without the final EOF on bash (OS X and Linux) and ksh 
(IRIX).

Note that the following works from the command line, but not as #!

        /usr/bin/env octave -q

Any other suggestions?

Thanks,

        - Paul
