Description

I've looked around in the docs and haven't been able to figure out how this works.

I'm working with the SGE template which appears to have three "levels" of code/text to be parsed by brew:

## text like this: comments
#$ -text like this: arguments to qsub
bare text like this: shell commands

When and where do the #$ lines get passed on to qsub (if that is indeed what happens)? Thanks for any help wrapping my mind around this!

Research direction

Search the repository for the SGE template and qsub references. Trace where lines beginning #$ are handled and document when they reach qsub; done when the behavior is explained with a small confirming example.
