Hi. Recently a user from suckless told me that bash sucks, but before I could ask why he went offline. I tried looking at suckless.org page about software that sucks, but couldn't find anything about bash. I can imagine why it sucks - no portability! #/bin/sh should be enough for everyone. Is that it or is something else to the matter? Maybe an entry to suckless.org suck page could be good to clarify things and also warn new users. Best wishes.
Yup, bash sucks. Why? It is slow, very slow. If you want an alternative which is faster, try mksh? Though some part might be different. -- _____________________________________ < Do what you like, like what you do. > ------------------------------------- \ ^__^ \ (oo)\_______ (__)\ )\/\ ||----w | || ||
