When I try to establish a remote connection to a cluster computer, I get an error message if `qrsh` is used to login into a node.

I followed the manual according to [Connecting to a Julia session on a remote machine · Juno Documentation](https://docs.junolab.org/latest/man/remote/)

`bash: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `(' bash: -c: line 0: `julia --depwarn=yes -O3 --color=yes -i -e let\n# NOTE: No single quotes.

However, just logging into the cluster computer without using `qrsh` and starting julia with `julia "$@"`(as descriped in the manual).

Any idea how to fix this?
