Homebrew provides a `rewrite_shebang` method to rewrite the shebang of a script. This replaces the original interpreter path with the one installed by Homebrew. This guarantees that the interpreter dependency was correctly installed and is present at execution time. For example, the [`icdiff` formula](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/7beae5ab57c65249403699b2b0700fbccf14e6cb/Formula/icdiff.rb#L16) uses such utility. +In some cases, the formula goal is to install a script written in an interpreted language, such as Python or Perl, to be used as an executable.

Note that it is necessary to include the utility in the formula, for example with Python one must use `include Language::Python::Shebang`. ### Handling files that should persist over formula upgrades
