I have a perl script that I would like to execute simply by
double-clicking on its name from a Windows filemanager window. (That

an icon.)
Eg, myscript.pl
I tried using this
#!C:\cygwin64\bin\perl.exe
Windows does not pay attention to file contents (like the first line in
your example), only the file name. If you don't want a file
association, you can opt to simply create a shortcut to your script that
begins with the python executable and that lists the script as a parameter.
