No. It means that if you compile your program with a shell script instead
of make, you can use condor_compile with your shell script to get your
program linked with the condor libaries.

There is no way to condor_compile a shell script directly because a 
shell script is not an ELF executable. You could condor_compile bash,
and then run your shell script with the condor_compiled bash, but that's
as close as you can come, unless there's a bash compiler out there.
