   A shell has nothing to do with it as it is the OS (exec system call)
that upon reading the magic of the file sees #! and executes the program
(up to the first space) and pass to the program the first (and the only)
parameter.

#! /usr/bin/env python -O

   [trying to execute the script on Linux]

/usr/bin/env: python -O: No such file or directory
