You can't do this, because Embperl has to know how to process the file,
before it could process the file and exctract the name of the recipe from
the file.

What you can do is, to make a (meta-)recipe that decides what recipe to use
for example by using the file extentions, or you can use the newly
indtroduced application object to do this. Look at eg/web/epwebapp.pl, this
is an application object, it's get_recipe method is called by Embperl for
every file it processes, eg/web/epwebapp.pl get_recipe now looks at the file
extention of the file on the filesystem and at the file extention of the
file that the user requested and chooses the correct recipe, syntax and
other parameters.
