On page http://suckless.org/people/Kris there are scripts that starts

#!/bin/rc in it to this list.
So I want to ask what is the best way to put rc into /bin under Linux.
Is there any options in plan9port or 9base that allow to install
non-conflicting utilities in /bin? Of course, I can just move 'rc'
into 'bin' using mv in my build script but maybe someone know any
better way?
Hope to get Kris reply, looks like he already use /bin/rc without
problems. Also strange that he uses #!/usr/bin/env rc in 'vp'.
I just keep a statically linked copy there on all of my
machines. There's nothing special about it. I used /usr/bin/env
in vp because I expect that most other people don't have a copy
there. I don't like to use /usr/bin/env because it might hit on
Byron's incompatible rc, but it's the best shot at having
scripts work everywhere.
I should probably update or remove most of the scripts on that
page... I didn't even realize that it was ever migrated from the
old diri setup.
