Modify preamble text when using shebang
When using the shebang support in bpipe, i.e. scripts leading with:
#!/usr/bin/env bpipe
the first output line to the terminal is always Stripping shebang
Stripping shebang

Given the shebang can be used to present a bpipe script as a standalone program, the ability to either
a) option to remove the Stripping shebang,and/or
b) add some custom text instead
would I think make it a bit of a nicer start to the terminal output and less confusing to a new user of the wrapped tool.
Thanks @lonsbio - agreed! I suspect it was never really intended to have it print that out, it was more a debug thing left in. So that is easy to remove.
For custom preamble I have toyed for a long while with making the About title attribute be displayed instead of "Starting Pipeline ...", as well as using it as the banner when invalid arguments are supplied. Let me know any thoughts on that!
Thanks @ssadedin , that looks great. title would be a good solution, customisable without too much overhead.
Suppose the only other thing, which perhaps could be encapsulated in the About structure might be a subtitle or version info so that there can something else there - again to try and replicate some kind of mimicry of a command line tool.

closing for now as primary issue addressed, remaining features can be considered separately
