Yes, I could have all such scripts source a file when they start. But
isn't that just another startup file? And duplication. Or pass
something through $1; again duplication. BASH_SCRIPT is a more elegant
solution and doesn't require any intervention from the named script.
If I end up carrying this as a local change, that's fine too. It
wouldn't be the first time.
Anything more on this?
I haven't heard anyone else weigh in besides the two of us.
