    Hi folks,
    
    I am wondering if our community is interested in seeing HTCondor
    have the ability for job submission information "embedded" at the
    start of a script PBS-style, like Brando shows below?   If yes,
    please help me to understand how/why you would find this desirable. 
    I do not want to miss out on an opportunity to make HTCondor easier
    to use.
    
    I personally find having my  job submission directives (submit file)
    and my job itself (executable) kept separated into two different
    files to be a more clean solution.  But as Brando is not the first
    person to ask about the below, I cannot help but wonder if I am
    missing something here.  
    
    Thanks all,
    Todd

Apologies I don't think I understand your response. I usually have a submission script as job.sub that specifies the executable path. If I could instead use the actually executable script as the submission script that would be great too e.g. I usually do that with qsub as follows:

```

#!/homes/miranda9/.conda/envs/automl-meta-learning/bin/python
#PBS -V
#PBS -M me@xxxxxxxxx
#PBS -m abe
#PBS -lselect=1:ncpus=112
import sys
import os

for p in sys.path:
    print(p)

print(os.environ)
