3. Non-binaries are called '*-scripts'.

   In earlier discussions some people seem to like the
   distinction between *-script and others; I did not
   particularly like it, but I am throwing this in for

I for one think this makes the command name dependent on a non-essential
implementation detail, so -script should go.
