[Icon-tech] wrapper for shell programs

[Nick Gawronski]

Hi, When putting a .py program anywhere I always have to run it from the 
console and it won't run from file explorer.  I always have to type python 
script.py rather then just script name or selecting it from the file 
explorer using select.  Any reason why this is the scripts are chmod +x so 
they are execicutable.
