[Casper] Bash Scripts using ~

[Ryan Harter]

I thought they worked with self service too.  You could test this out  
with the following script.

#!/bin/bash

echo "$1" >> /tmp/variables.txt
echo "$2" >> /tmp/variables.txt
echo "$3" >> /tmp/variables.txt

Then you should be able to run it and see what the variables are.   
Make sure you run it with casper to test it.
