I'm not sure if this is outside the scope of this project, but it would be nice if the #!/usr/bin/env pattern.

% cat bisect.sh
#!/usr/bin/env bash

set -ex

export NIXPKGS=${NIXPKGS:-$HOME/packages/nixpkgs}
nix-env --file "$NIXPKGS" -iA autojump
autojump --help

% shc -U -f bisect.sh
shc Unknown shell (env): specify [-i][-x][-l]
shc: Success

Please checkout the 3.9.4a branch and report if possible.

./bisect.sh.x: invalid option -- 'c'
Try `./bisect.sh.x --help' for more information.

Currently there is no plan to add this feature.

Can you please check the current version with the H flag and report back

@intika 4.0.3 has this with and without -H

I'm running into a similar problem.I want to support env.

How to work around it in the command line?

shc -x /bin/bash does not help

This would be very useful because if I'm not mistaken, the compiled script is at the mercy of whatever version of the shebang shell the operator has on their system and not the version the script was developed with. I guess one could add a check for the version of /usr/bin/bash being used, but this would still be a useful option to have.
