Re: Another shell scripting question

[David Piniella]

	Is it just more efficient in resources to use plain #! /bin/sh
rather than bash?
 

No, it just makes your script more portable to systems that might not 
have bash.

Some systems that /do/ have bash installed have /bin/sh linked to it, 
but some don't have bash by default or choice (Solaris, FreeBSD, et al.)
