Which version of bat-mode did you test?
Same question for some of the comments in the above web-page.  E.g. you
say "Strings containing “<<” are treated as heredoc comments", but AFAIK
this should only happen in fairly old versions of Emacs.
I also see a reference to "bell_206.ps" but I can't find this file.
