Another problem regarding text files wanting to run is if this file
was originally created in a Windows environment - by default *all*
Windows files are executable and this permission is picked up by a
Linux OS, which then looks at the contents and doesn't see anything
that would identify the text as something that would run so asks what
it should do. Plain text files created in Linux aren't executable
unless the user wants that to be the case, as in a script file.
