Interesting. Takes advantage of a recent change to hash-bang. In the original hash-bang implementation, you'd see only "This {filename}", because hash-bang took only one argument, then put the filename after it.

So there are definitely places where this hack will not work. Do not consider it portable to all places that support hash-bang, let alone those that don't!
