  Yes, you are expected to submit an executable file named
  mcBash.  The first line of that file should be
   
    #!/usr/bin/python
   
  (or something equivalent); and the remaining lines should
  contain your Python code.  You can use the chmod command
  to make your mcBash executable:
   
    % chmod +x mcBash
   
  The rules for Perl and Ruby are similar.
