Yah, I hadn't thought about csh. Definitely agree the rule should be<br>
/bin/bash, or /bin/sh for scripts that were tested with ash.<br>

Interesting. Never even occurred to me to test performance, I expect<br>
interpreters to be slow, and at least subconsciously I was aware that bash<br>
is bloated... but wouldn't have guessed ash would be *that* much faster.<br>
<br>
Hm. I just now thought I'd try a couple of things in ash, as an<br>
interactive shell, on slack64 13.1, and the damn thing segfaulted halfway<br>
through typing the first command. /me runs off to do some more testing...<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes, but it was really fast until it blew up ....</div><div><br></div><div>I've had the same experience in search of a less bloated browser than Firefox (really solid, reliable code of significant complexity is not so easy to come by).
