gollark: <@!336962240848855040> So I don't know if any image format will let you stick a shebang at the start, *but* python apparently happily runs `__main__.py` from ZIP files. And ZIP files are backwards and work fine at the end of an image.
gollark: Anyway, I don't think any widely-used image formats will let you stick in a shebang or whatever at the front, unfortunately, they have headers.
gollark: Yep.
gollark: Not hugely related but interesting.
