Then you have to wrestle with the question of POSIX shell versus Bash extensions. ;-) Both are in use but you'll find that in Debian many Bashisms have been removed from system scripts in recent years. Debian now uses dash for the system shell which would probably be a good candidate to test system scripts against. User shells still default to Bash although Zsh and others are available. - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."
