most linux distributions (all??) come with /bin/sh linked to bash.
however bash is supposed to be able to do anything the bourne shell can
do, no? if that's the case you should be able to do the same thing,
probably in a pretty much identical way.
it seems kind of silly to me - i rarely use the bourne shell but i like
the fact that it's there in bsd systems (and that if i specify /bin/sh
that's exactly what i'm getting).
try checking the bash man pages.
