for ease of use, they probably should be marked executable... but if Marcus reckons there's issues with that, maybe we shouldn't bother.
Marcus, is it because freebsd uses cvs? I'm pretty sure cvs has weird problems with executable bits... however all the modern tools work ok.
the '#!/usr/bin/env python' part should definitely stay there.
Hopefully people will be able to run the examples like...
$ python -m pygame.examples.chimp
or >>> import pygame.examples.chimp
>>> pygame.examples.chimp.main()
And to see where they are: >>> pygame.examples.chimp.__file__ '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pygame/examples/chimp.pyc'
cu.

Hi,
I was looking at the Pygame examples in linux and noted that many have the '#!/usr/bin/env python' tag line but are not marked as executable either by SVN or linux. Is there a convention for this?
