Using interpreters

Prev Next

You can configure interpreters to control the execution of additional scripts.

Unlike executables, a script needs an interpreter to read and execute the instructions written in a scripting language. To manage execution of scripts in your setup:

  1. Check that relevant interpreters and scripts are allowed.

  2. Map appropriate file extensions of scripts with specific interpreters.

The software controls execution of scripts with #! when run using the ./<script name> syntax. By default, scripts with #! are not allowed to execute.
