If I right-click and select Open with EMACS that works OK. However, after a little bit of playing with it: 1. If the file has a ".sh" extension or begins with the line "#!/bin/sh -f" then Nautilus recognizes it as a shell script and changes the icon to 3 cog wheels. Then if I double-click it I just get the hourglass. 2. If I rename the file to remove the ".sh" extension and delete that first line, then the icon changes to the one for a plain text file. Then if I double-click it I get the run or display dialog, and if I select Run in Terminal it works OK. I took a look in Bugzilla and don't see anything obvious for this. I guess I should submit one.
