Subject: changing the shebang of ruby files best way ?

I've a lot of ruby files (grabed from net) having a wrong shebang for my
setup.

actual shebang is :
#!/usr/bin/ruby -w

and i need to change it to :
#! /usr/bin/env ruby -w

that way i'll get the ruby in my PATH and not a fixed ruby.

what i plan to do :

detect if the shebang isn't correct and if true :
 move the file to a temp directory
 create a new with "good" shebang having path/name of the previous


remove the tmp dir

but i wonder, because i know i have to change the first line only, if i
could change the uncorrect file "in place" even if my shebang line is
longer (4 chars) than the preceeding one ????
