shebang
The entire matter
Shebang appears almost exclusively in the phrase the whole shebang, meaning everything involved in a situation or undertaking: We're redoing the kitchen—cabinets, counters, appliances, the whole shebang.
The word's origin is uncertain, but it once meant a rough dwelling or shelter.
In computing, a shebang is the character sequence #! at the start of a script file, indicating which program should execute it.
