/bin/sh exists for compatability with the legacy Bourne shell and does
not provide bash-specific features. In APP 1 I had a ~bash_cmd_rc file
with some output in the BASH_ENV, and it is ignored by /bin/sh, even
if /bin/sh is a softlink to /bin/bash on my machine.
Having a softlink or several softlinks to the same executable is quite a
common pattern in Unix. Every binary can read the name under which it was
executed and make decisions on that. You can also use that in
shellscripts (APP 2) where the $0 contains the name of the script.

Roland
